The Campaigns page is where you find, edit, follow and clean up your email campaigns. To open it, go to MailerPress > Campaigns. To create a campaign, click Create Campaign and follow Create an Email Campaign.
Find a campaign
The sidebar groups your campaigns:
- Standard: All campaigns, Classic campaigns (sent once) and Automated campaigns (sent automatically when new content is published).
- Experiments: All A/B campaigns, for A/B tests (requires MailerPress Pro). See A/B test your email campaigns.
Above the table, filter by status with the All, Mine, Draft, Sent, In progress, Error, Scheduled, Pending and Trash tabs, or use the search bar. The table shows each campaign’s Title, Date, Status, Campaign type, Details and Public link. Expand a row to see its subject, sender, recipients, delivery and tracking settings.
Edit, preview, rename or duplicate a campaign
- Edit: click the campaign title to open it in the email editor. You can’t edit a campaign that is sent, pending, in progress, scheduled or in the trash.
- Preview: hover over a campaign and click the eye icon. In the Campaign preview window, switch between desktop and mobile views.
- Rename: in the row actions menu, choose Rename, enter the new Name and click Save.
- Duplicate: in the row actions, choose Duplicate, enter the Campaign name and Subject of the copy, then click Save. The copy opens in the editor. Automated campaigns can’t be duplicated.
Follow a sending
The Status column shows where each campaign stands:
- Scheduled: shows the sending date and time. Click Cancel it to cancel the scheduled sending. The campaign goes back to Draft.
- In progress: shows how many emails are sent so far. MailerPress sends emails in batches (small groups). Click View batch details to see each batch, or Cancel sending to stop the remaining sends and move the campaign back to draft. Emails already sent can’t be recalled.
- Sent: the Details column shows openers, clicks and unsubscribes, with a View statistics button. See Campaign statistics and reports.
Once a campaign has started sending, users who can manage contacts can choose View logs in the row actions. The logs list each email with its recipient, subject, status (Sent, Failed or Pending), sending service and any error message.
Other row actions
- Copy public link (sent campaigns): copies the address of the campaign’s web version, also shown in the Public link column. Personal links, such as unsubscribe links, are hidden in this version.
- Resend to non-engaged (sent classic campaigns, requires MailerPress Pro): sends the campaign again to contacts who did not open or click.
- Edit settings (automated campaigns): changes the campaign’s settings. Use its status to deactivate or reactivate it, and Sending details in the Details column to list each automatic send.
- Launch A/B test, Refresh A/B metrics and Send A/B winner (A/B test variations, requires MailerPress Pro): manage the A/B test the campaign belongs to.
Delete and restore campaigns
Deleting a campaign moves it to the trash, so you can restore it later.
- Delete: hover over a campaign, click the trash icon and confirm with Delete campaign. For several campaigns, select them and choose Delete in the bulk actions.
- Restore: open the Trash tab and choose Restore in the row actions. The campaign comes back as a draft.
- Delete for good: in the Trash tab, select campaigns and choose Delete permanently, or click Empty Trash. This can’t be undone.
Only users allowed to delete campaigns see these options. See MailerPress capabilities.
