Send It

A Statamic addon for sending entries out through pluggable channels. Pick an entry in the control panel, run the Send It action, choose a channel, and go.

The first channel creates a Mailchimp campaign from the entry. A built-in mailer channel sends the entry through Laravel's configured mailer so you can test-send before committing to a real campaign. The channel layer is designed so additional providers — Postmark lists, SMS, WhatsApp — can be added without touching the action.

Installation

composer require abigah/send-it

Publish the config (optional):

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=send-it-config

Configuration

Set the relevant environment variables:

# Default channel used when none is chosen
SEND_IT_CHANNEL=mailchimp

# Mailchimp
SEND_IT_MAILCHIMP_API_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-us21
SEND_IT_MAILCHIMP_AUDIENCE_ID=abc123
SEND_IT_MAILCHIMP_FROM_NAME="Abigah"
SEND_IT_MAILCHIMP_REPLY_TO=hello@abigah.com
# Create drafts by default; flip to send immediately
SEND_IT_MAILCHIMP_SEND_IMMEDIATELY=false

# Mailer (test send) — uses your app's default mailer
SEND_IT_MAILER_TO=you@example.com

The Mailchimp server prefix (e.g. us21) is derived from the API key suffix automatically; override it with SEND_IT_MAILCHIMP_SERVER_PREFIX if needed.

By default the campaign/email body comes from the entry's content field (its augmented HTML). Change the source field per channel via config/send-it.php.

Usage

1. In the control panel, select one or more entries in a collection listing.
2. Run the Send It action.
3. Choose a channel (Mailchimp or the mailer test send), optionally set a subject, and confirm.

Mailchimp campaigns are created as drafts by default so you can review them before sending — toggle Send immediately to send right away.

Email layout

Channel content is wrapped in an Antlers email layout before sending — a responsive, email-client-safe shell with the logo centered at the top and a footer (copyright, address, unsubscribe link). Configure it under the email key in config/send-it.php (logo URL/width, site name, footer text/address, unsubscribe URL).

Customise the markup by publishing the view:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=send-it-views
# resources/views/vendor/send-it/default-email/layout.antlers.html

Point email.layout at your own view, or set it to null to send content unwrapped.

Adding a channel

Implement Abigah\SendIt\Contracts\Channel and register it from any service provider:

app(\Abigah\SendIt\Channels\ChannelManager::class)
    ->extend('postmark', fn ($app) => new PostmarkChannel(config('send-it.channels.postmark')));

Configured channels automatically appear in the Send It action's channel picker.
