Newsletter

Micropage includes a newsletter flow built on top of the form system: capture subscribers from any page, manage your list in the editor, and publish Posts directly — no third-party email tool required.

A Post is a single piece of content that can go to the web, to email, or both. You choose independently, per post, whether it's published to your site's content archive and whether it's emailed to your subscribers.

Turning a form into a newsletter signup​

In the editor, open Settings → Forms, pick a form, and toggle the Newsletter option. Add:

  • From name — what shows in the inbox as the sender display name.
  • Reply-to email — where replies go (your own address; not a noreply).
  • Welcome email subject (optional) — sends an immediate welcome email to new subscribers.

Save. Any submission to that form now creates a persistent subscriber record, not a one-off submission.

Managing subscribers​

The Newsletter → Subscribers tab lists every subscriber for the project: email, subscribed date, source form, and unsubscribe status. From there you can:

  • Export the full list as CSV.
  • Manually unsubscribe a contact.
  • Re-send the welcome email.

Double-opt-in support is on the roadmap.

Writing and publishing a post​

The Newsletter → Broadcasts tab is the post composer:

  1. Title, subject, and body (markdown supported).
  2. Web visibility — Listed (appears in your site's content index, RSS, and sitemap), Unlisted (gets its own page and URL, but isn't linked from the index or listed in the feed/sitemap), or Email-only (not published to the web at all). Listed and Unlisted posts need a slug — it's auto-filled from the title and editable.
  3. Send by email toggle — on by default. Turn it off to publish web-only with no email send.
  4. Preview rendering, then publish.

Publishing does both jobs at once where applicable: it triggers a rebuild of your site (so the new post appears at /content, or your custom content path) if web visibility isn't Email-only, and queues the email send if "Send by email" is on.

Each post is recorded with delivery stats (sent / bounced / unsubscribed) and, for emailed posts with links in the body, a click-through report: overall click-through rate, unique clickers, and a per-link breakdown of which links in the email got clicked. Open-rate tracking is not part of this report.

Publishing to the web​

Listed and Unlisted posts are published under a content archive on your site — /content by default, or a custom path set in Settings → Content path. The archive gets:

  • An index page listing your Listed posts, newest first.
  • A page per post at /content/{slug} (Unlisted posts get a page too, just not a listing).
  • An RSS feed at /content/rss.xml and entries in your site's sitemap.xml — both Listed posts only.
  • Per-post Open Graph tags, using the post's hero image if set.

If /content (or your custom path) collides with a page you've already built at that URL, your page wins and the archive doesn't mount there.

Sender settings​

Configure once per project under Newsletter → Sender settings:

  • Organization name and address (required for CAN-SPAM / GDPR compliance).
  • Default from-name and reply-to.
  • Footer text.

These apply to both welcome emails and broadcasts.

Limits and pricing​

Subscriber capture is available on all plans, including Free. Broadcast send limits scale with your plan tier. See the pricing page for current numbers.
