Grow a direct connection with your audience from inside WordPress.
P-Hatch Mail List gives you a polished email signup form, a private subscriber database, and the tools to send announcements without depending on a separate mailing-list platform. It is lightweight, straightforward, and designed to work with the email delivery configuration already connected to your WordPress website.
Everything You Need to Start a Mailing List
- Professional signup form: Add a clean, responsive one-line email form to any page.
- Simple shortcode: Place
wherever you want the form to appear. - Subscriber management: View active and unsubscribed addresses in one organized WordPress admin screen.
- Bulk deletion: Select one or more email addresses and remove them from your database.
- Built-in email composer: Create formatted announcements with the familiar WordPress visual editor.
- Editable welcome email: Customize the subject and introduction sent automatically to every new subscriber.
- One-click unsubscribe: Every message includes a secure unsubscribe link automatically.
- Live form designer: Preview color, width, spacing, padding, height, and corner changes in real time, with optional advanced CSS.
Uses Your Existing WordPress Email Setup
Messages are sent through WordPress using wp_mail(). If your website already uses an SMTP or transactional email plugin, P-Hatch Mail List automatically uses that same delivery setup. Each newsletter is sent separately to subscribers, so recipient addresses are not exposed to other people on the list.
Designed for Privacy and Safer Signups
Subscriber records stay in a dedicated table in your WordPress database. Signup requests include email validation, nonce protection, a hidden spam trap, and basic rate limiting. Secure signed unsubscribe links let recipients leave the list without logging in.
