The next version of Mailster is now available and brings some exciting updates for your email marketing solution. Even though it’s technically a minor update and not a major like version 4.0, it comes with some great new features.
The focus on this update was to improve the automation, fix some known bugs, and improve the general UI/UX.
New Jumper Step
The jumper step can be used to “jump” to a certain step in your workflow.
It helps you to either bypass some future steps or go back to a step to repeat parts of your workflow.
It also offers conditions so you can decide when to jump to the defined step.

New Notification Step
An often requested feature is to get notified if the customer journey reaches a certain point. The “Notification Step” can send you or someone else a quick notification of the process.
To make things clearer you can also add merge tags like {firstname}
or {lastname}
in the subject or content of that email to include the current subscriber’s info.

Skip the Step
Now you can quickly disable steps and triggers in your workflow.
This can help you to temporarily skip steps instead of removing them completely.
Disabling a trigger can prevent new users from entering the workflow.
New Prefill your forms with URL arguments
You can now prefill forms if you pass arguments to the URL. This can help increase conversations and reduce errors in user inputs.
You have to enable this option in the forms options section!
Inspect the Queue
You can now check who is currently queued in a step. This makes removing entries from the queue easy or forwarding a user to the next step.
