You publish articles in different categories. Then you decide which categories that shall be in the newsletter and how often the newsletter shall be sent. Thats it. From now on, Vemod will automatically send news from the content on your Joomla site.
Configuration took a little time to set up, but once configured, it works great.
Lots of great features in this newsletter. The users are able to choose if they want html og plain text news.
