I have been looking around for a potential solution but haven’t been able to see any, so I would just like to ask to see if I have the ability to send a “Partial Email Newsletter”, rather than a “Full Email Newsletter” of my newly-minted post?
Given especially, my posts are very long, I would want to send a shorter excerpt of it to the reader and if they want to read more, they will be forwarded to the actual website link.
Hope there is a potential solution for this. Thank you!
I am not sure of a technical way to do that, but you could surely draft up a certain length of your post in the newsletter and at the end set up a link that takes the reader to the original post on your website. Maybe keeping the length of your newsletter short and power punched may lure your readers to the website!!!
I too have this same issue and hope there is another workaround as well.
Since you have affirmed the issue, guess there is really no other way around it. I have stumbled upon this thread Email subscribers without publishing a post - #2 by DavidDarnes, but it is a partial and a little complex way to do what you are mentioning as well.
Hopeful there is some simple implementation in the near future as well!
At first I got a bit confused at the steps. But eventually, I got the idea you were (1) Setting up the entire post + Email Card, then after sending the email out, (2) Replace original post with full content.
That is quite useful as an idea, though would totally agree that a better workaround should be able to work out on this. However, really appreciate the sharing of your solution as well!
