Admin Menu Category: Admin Tools & Settings > Messaging

Send email messages to your registered users with this admin tool. You will have the ability to create and send from a list of form messages that you have previously set up, or simply create a new message to send right away to all users or groups of users.

<tip c n>The admin messaging uses a cron job to send the e-mails to recipients. The cron job is run automatically as part of the heartbeat. By default it sends 50 e-mails every 10 minutes, a frequency that is currently "hard coded" in a PHP file within the Geo system files. If your host has max email sending limits lower than that, there is a way to change the frequency but it involves making a change to a PHP file. If you are comfortable with doing that send a request to support for more.

Note that you can manually force one group of these emails to be sent without a "cron routine tripping them" by click the following link in your admin tool:

SITE SETUP > CRON JOBS > process_email_queue > [Test Run]
