    Hi Stephen,
    I’m building a website that requires people who’ve booked for an event to be sent an email 24 hours before the event, and then a different email 24 hours after the event. Is this possible in the Pro version? Or is something that could be added with a bit of coding? If so, could you give me some pointers on what would need to be modified, please?
    Thanks!

    Hi John,

    It’s not possible ‘out of the box’ – but with a bit of custom code it certainly is. I’ll publish a tutorial on how to do this in the next 1-2 weeks.

    Note: it will involve using WP-Cron which is not 100% accurate in its timing (this will depend on your sites traffic).

    Hi Stephen,
    I was just wondering if you could give me an update on the tutorial for the reminder emails. I’m getting into that stage of the project now and I have a friend working on it too – so any pointers you could give me would be much appreciated!
    Thanks!
    John

Your information:




To create code blocks or other preformatted text, indent by four spaces:

    This will be displayed in a monospaced font. The first four 
    spaces will be stripped off, but all other whitespace
    will be preserved.
    
    Markdown is turned off in code blocks:
     [This is not a link](http://example.com)

To create not a block, but an inline code span, use backticks: 

Here is some inline `code`.
