Go to the ACP -> GAZ -> Newsletters -> click the newsletter you want to edit -> check that 'Issue active after generation' is set to yes. You can also go to the ACP -> GAZ -> Issues -> select the newsletter from the drop down menu -> select send in the options drop down menu.

By default the 'GAZ Send Queue' cron is set to run at minute 50 of every hour. vBulletin crons/scheduled tasks run when someone visits your site. No visitors, no cron is run. You can check what crons you have set to run by going to the ACP -> Scheduled Tasks -> Scheduled Task Manager. You can also check the logs via the ACP -> Statistics & Logs -> Scheduled Task Log -> Show Only Entries Generated By -> GAZ Send Queue.

Doubtful ACP access is going to help. It's probably a setting. When you set up the new newsletter did you set 'Default to subscription' to yes? If not, no one is subscribed, and no newsletter would be sent.

1: The 25th of May and the 1st of June are one week apart. Check 'Frequency from Start Date' under the ACP -> GAZ -> Newsletters -> click the newsletter link of interest.

2: Whoever is subscribed to the newsletter gets an issue sent to them. Go to the ACP -> GAZ -> Subscriptions to check who is subscribed to what.

3: You can change when you want the GAZ crons to run via the ACP -> Scheduled Tasks -> Scheduled Task Manager -> Edit -> change day of week, day of month, hour, and minute to what you prefer.

• I have set the Cronjob, but the time isn't correct.
• Who get a newsletter, if the user dont do anything? User, who dont visit the forum over a long time? Ore everyone?
• I have over 1000 User, but not everyone gets a newsletter.

Thanks, but I read just fine.

1: Go to the ACP -> Scheduled Tasks -> Scheduled Task Manager -> scroll to the bottom of the page and look at the "All times are X. The time now is Y." text to see what time is being used.

2: It depends on whether, when you create a new newsletter, if you set 'Default to subscription' to yes or no. If yes, then everyone is subscribed. If no, then no one is subscribed. You can use 'Usergroups allowed to subscribe' to limit which usergroups get the newsletter.

3: Maybe some users went to /forum/profile.php?do=editprofile and set 'Newsletter Subscription' to no, maybe some users went to /forum/profile.php?do=editoptions and set 'Receive Email from Administrators' to no, maybe some email readers think the newsletter is spam, maybe some users use Spam Arrest or some such service, maybe some users send mail from your site to a junk mailbox, maybe some servers don't accept mail from your site, etcetera.
