Faqs
General
Wishlist Membership Notifications is relevant to any membership site that has an expiration date and that members need to renew their membership in order to maintain access to the protected content.
Once you have activated the Wishlist Membership Notifications plugin and define its settings and messages in the Notifications Messages tab, the plugin will automatically send notifications to ALL members whose membership is about to expire, including existing members.
Compatibility
Yes it does. We are using WordPress internal function to send the notifications and we are using it in a way that complies with the Mandrill service.
There is not any problem with sending emails from your own server and you will not get blacklisted by doing so. The problem with getting blacklisted is when you send unsolicited emails (spam). As long as you are sending emails to members who have signed up to your site, you will not get blacklisted.

Pricing
Wishlist Membership Notifications is evolving all the time and new features are added on a regular basis. The only way to ensure that we can continue developing the plugin and invest resources and efforts in bringing new features to the plugin is by using a monthly subscription model.
Technical
