Newsletters

Use Newsletter when you want to send a message to subscribers without changing the weekly eruv status.

This is useful for announcements, fundraising, reminders, and other community updates.

Main layout

The newsletter form has:

• an Email tab
• a Text Message tab
• a Preview panel
• draft and reuse tools for past newsletters

Email tab

The email side includes:

• Subject
• Email Body

If you fill in the email body, the subject is required. If you fill in the subject, the body is also required.

Text Message tab

Use this for the SMS version of your newsletter.

Keep SMS messages brief. The form shows an SMS length counter to help you stay within a practical text-message length.

Preview and send test

The Preview panel lets you:

• load a preview of the email and SMS
• send a test email
• send a test SMS

You can enter multiple email addresses or phone numbers separated by commas.

Drafts and reusing past content

On a new newsletter, you may also see Drafts & previous newsletters.

This lets you:

• load a saved draft and keep editing it
• load content from a previous sent newsletter
• clear the form and start fresh

When editing a draft, you can also use:

• Save Draft
• Delete Draft
• New Newsletter

Send the newsletter

When you are ready, click Send Newsletter.

The newsletter is queued to your subscribers. After sending, EruvStatus returns you to a fresh newsletter form so you can start the next message.

Best practices

• Always use Load Preview before sending
• Send yourself a test email and test SMS first
• Keep SMS short even if the email version is much longer
• Save a draft if you are not ready to send immediately
