What Our Support Service Covers
Answering questions about how to use the plugin
The response to general questions about the plugin and how to use it can come in various formats including directing you to an already documented response.
Answering technical questions and fixing issues
We can’t guarantee that our work will be error-free and so we can’t be liable to you or any third-party for damages, including lost profits, lost savings or other incidental, consequential or special damages.
This covers the use of our plugin on your site, or the MailPoet team accessing your site to assist you with support.
In many cases, we will need to have administrator access to your WordPress dashboard and may install other plugins to help us troubleshoot.
Support for Free Users
Free users are the ones using the free version of the plugin and/or the free sending plan (free Premium).
MailPoet is not obliged by any means to provide support for our free users. However, if you don’t have a paid MailPoet subscription, you can search the MailPoet Knowledge Base. It has excellent tutorials, guides, and articles. You will be able to find the answers to most of your questions there!
If you are a free user and need a faster answer to your question, please consider buying our Premium version.
Support for Premium users
You’re a Premium user if you have bought a Premium license (Blogger, Freelance or Agency) or subscribed to one of our paid sending plans.
We work hard to answer you faster than the 48 hours promised on weekdays during normal office hours.
Our Premium support team does everything possible to ensure that MailPoet works as promised.
Versions Supported
As part of the support and troubleshooting process, updating the to latest version often resolves any problems so we do recommend this initially.
At MailPoet, we offer support when your site is using the latest release or the previous one before that. This is often called L-1
or “Latest minus one version”, where the version number is in the format of x.y.z
– we focus on the second then first number.
For example, if the latest version of MailPoet is 3.89.z
then the oldest MailPoet version we support is 3.88.z
.
What Our Support Does Not Cover
MailPoet reserves the right to NOT PROVIDE support for:
- Modified versions of the plugin;
- Code customization, like custom shortcodes;
- Set up SPF and DKIM DNS records;
- Create cron jobs;
- Provide custom style modifications (CSS styles) for subscription Forms;
- Further diagnosis of plugin malfunction on the user’s server;

If you want to hire someone to help you with customization, we suggest the fine people at Codeable.io (affiliate link).

Theme and Plugins Conflicts
Some badly coded Themes and Plugins conflict with MailPoet, making it partially or entirely unstable. In these cases, the solution is to change the theme or deactivate the plugin generating the conflict.
We will always suggest you get in touch with this plugin’s author to ask for a fix.
Third-Party Plugins Compatible with MailPoet
We have a list of plugins that are compatible with MailPoet. However, we are not responsible for their functionalities, conflicts or maintenance.
Each one is supported by their respective authors.
In all these cases, MailPoet Support Team can try to fix it for you, but we won’t promise a solution.
Feature Requests
We are aware that MailPoet is a nice plugin, but we can always improve it even further. That’s why we love to hear your ideas, feedback, and new feature requests. The best place to share your ideas is on our dedicated feedback board.
However, our team of developers is a small one. Trust us to assign priority to new features. If the idea is good and will benefit lots of users, we will highly consider it!
