The newsletter subscription is built using Contact Form 7, Noptin, and Post SMTP plugins. Post SMTP is integrated with Oracle Cloud Email Delivery service. Following Noptin recommendation, the built-in WP-Cron is disabled and an external cron job is setup in cron-job.org, executing WP-Cron every 5 minutes.

Contact Form 7 is configured not to send email, and email sending is left to Noptin. Double-Optin is enabled. Upon form submission, the subscriber is added with “Pending” status and a confirmation email is sent. Once confirmed, the status is updated to “Subscribed” and the subscriber starts receiving an email notification, every time a post is published.
