@Torsten Högel - for now nothing because we haven't even started yet, we're in the planning phase, but our main concern is to get rid of any legacy code. We want to be php >= 7.1 compatible for mailwizz >= 2.0 and use all the right php language features because till now we didn't had the chance, mailwizz 1.x is, and will always be, compatible with php >= 5.2 up to 7.x., which implies lots of work from our end and inability to use some features we'd like so much.
So 2.0 will be breaking from these limitations. see more at https://forum.mailwizz.com/threads/we-want-to-increase-minimum-php-version-to-run-mailwizz.5979/
 
Congrats @twisted1919 & team! I must say, you guys are one of the most hard working teams I've known in a decade. The best thing is you are open to community and accept to listen.

Cheers :)
 
Hello everyone,

After a lot of hard work we are able to release MailWizz 1.8.1 which brings a lot of improvements, changes and enhancements as the changelog shows.

Since this is a cumulative and large release, please make sure you backup your data before upgrading.
This brings us a step closer to MailWizz 2.0 and we're hoping that 1.8.x till 2.0 to be only maintenance releases. We will start our work for MailWizz 2.0 in August or September most likely.

Back to this release, we're really happy that we were able to include basic survey functionality. While not a complete solution yet, it's a step in the right direction which in future will become better and better. For now you can create simple surveys and include links to them in your campaigns.

Another note, i think people that use PHPMailer as the system mailer from Backend > Settings > Common, should switch to SwiftMailer instead as it is much more reliable and the difference in speed between the two is not that big.

Hi.

It is an amazing work.

Is it possible from backend disable survey menu on customer dashboard? Would be great if disable option could be done to customers groups.

Thanks in advanced

You can do that ;)

Hi.
Thanks for your answer.

I meant, hide Survey menu from customer dashboard. I don"t find the option in backend.

I see on Settings->Customers->Surveys, options for configurate it, but not for hidden the menu on customer dashboard.

On Customers->Groups->"Name of group"->Surveys I don't see the option neither.

Is it possible to hide that menu?

PS: I had updated MW to latest version 1.8.3


Thanks a lot

My point is that if you give them 0 surveys, the option will disappear ;)
Hi.

That option I did it before and menu doesn't dissapear.
It only works for not creating any survey, but menu still appears on customer dashboard.

I gave them 0 in backend to "Customers" and to "Groups" too.

Thanks a lot
 
We were able to reproduce this, thanks.
It has been fixed now and we will include it in the next release.

It is awesome.

MW is every time more and more a great and an incredible tool for email marketing and with the new survey tool, it will cover another important area of marketing. I know you will give a great survey tool too with all the features. I think your survey tool will become to be a better alternative to LimeSurvey.

Thank you for all your work
 
Hi,
But I only found this [SURVEY:SURVEY_UNIQUE_ID_HERE:VIEW_URL] in my available tag from the campaign.
So I need to manually replace SURVEY_UNIQUE_ID_HERE with my surveys ID?
