Welcome to the Newsletter Glue newsletter. Once a month, we publish product updates and our favourite newsletter tips. You’ll also be the first to hear about all our promotions.


Hey everyone,

I’m so excited to share with you the new features we’ve released in the month of June. It’s been a busy month for our team, and we’ve been working hard to bring you two new and exciting features that will make Newsletter Glue even more powerful and awesome:

  1. Newsletter templates
  2. Email size checker

Introducing ready-to-use newsletter templates

Newsletter Glue newsletter templates

First up is newsletter templates! Newsletter Glue now comes with 9 beautiful newsletter templates that give you a ready-made design to customize and create your own template.

The templates are designed to save you precious time each time you want to create a new newsletter. They are fully responsive with clean, heavily-tested HTML, so they look great across all screen sizes and email clients.

What makes this a unique feature is that you can set a template as an “active template” and it’ll automatically load the next time you create a newsletter. 

Check our template library and try out the free demo to see how it works. You can also read our article on the newsletter templates to learn how to set a template as an active template.


Email size checker

Did you know that Gmail clips emails that are greater than 102kb in size?

Since Gmail is such a popular email client, email clipping can impact a large portion of your email list and prevent them from viewing the entire message. 

Newsletter Glue now provides an email size checker in the preview to warn you if your email will get clipped. It shows you three different lights (green, yellow and red) that indicate the chances of your email getting clipped.

Many websites claim that Gmail clips at 102kb, but our tests have shown that it sometimes clips emails that are smaller than 102kb, and also larger! We recommend that you send a test email and check it yourself and use our email checker as a rough indication.


Product updates 🧰

Here are some more small but handy features we’ve recently launched:

  • Added padding and margin controls to all our newsletter blocks.
  • Select label for brand and lists via dropdown for Sendy. We had to use Sendy v6 APIs for this. Which means Newsletter Glue no longer works with older versions of Sendy.
  • Reduced email size by ~10%.
  • Make name and checkbox required. Only if you want to, of course!
  • Fixed a bunch of tiny WordPress v.6 compatibility bugs.
