Changrid Email Delivery

Changrid Email Delivery connects WordPress wp_mail() calls to a Changrid workspace through the dedicated, API-key-protected WordPress endpoint.

The plugin is free, and you can start sending with Changrid’s Free plan. Upgrade only when you need more sending capacity, routing, retention, workspace capacity, or provider options.

Features:

• Uses workspace access and secret keys; no WordPress user password is shared.

• Start sending with the Changrid Free plan; no separate plugin license is required.

• Routes normal WordPress mail, including HTML and plain-text messages.

• Supports To, Cc, Bcc, and Reply-To addresses.

• Keeps the From identity protected by Changrid provider configuration while allowing an optional site-wide Reply-To address.

• Optional open, click, and unsubscribe tracking.

• Optional fallback to native wp_mail() after a Changrid request error.

• Sends one explicit test message from the settings screen.

• Checks credentials and send permission without sending an email.

• Keeps automatic workspace routing as the recommended default, with an advanced fixed-provider option for strict route control.

• Keeps a small local diagnostic log without recipient addresses, subjects, or message bodies.

• Supports constants in wp-config.php so production secrets do not need to be stored in the WordPress database.

Changrid returns an accepted/queued response. Acceptance is not proof of final delivery. Final status and provider events remain available in the Changrid workspace where supported by the configured provider.

This plugin currently does not send attachments through Changrid. When fallback is enabled, messages with attachments continue through native wp_mail().

External service

This plugin sends email data to the Changrid service when the site owner enables Changrid delivery. The request may contain recipient email addresses and names, the email subject and body, Reply-To addresses, tracking preferences, and a generic plugin-version User-Agent. The User-Agent does not include the WordPress site URL.

Changrid uses this data to enqueue and operate the requested communication through the workspace’s configured provider route.

• Acceptable use: https://changrid.com/legal/acceptable-use

The service is not contacted until the plugin is configured and a message is sent, or the administrator deliberately presses the connection-check or test button.

The connection-check button contacts Changrid only after the administrator has

configured credentials and deliberately starts the check. It verifies the key

and the communications:send scope and loads active email provider choices

without creating an email.

Plans and billing

The WordPress plugin itself is free and GPL-licensed. A Changrid account is

required to use the hosted delivery service. Changrid has a Free plan and paid

plans with different managed-message allowances, routing features, retention,

workspace capacity, and provider options. Current prices and limits are shown

com/pricing and are supplied by Changrid’s live plan catalog.

Your WordPress hosting, domain, and any bring-your-own provider charges are

separate from the Changrid subscription. BYOP traffic and managed-delivery

allowances may be treated differently by the selected Changrid plan; review the

live plan details before upgrading.

Privacy

The local activity log stores UTC time, result, recipient count, execution ID, HTTP status, and an error code. It does not store recipient addresses, subject lines, or message content. Uninstalling the plugin deletes its settings and local log.

Enabling open or click tracking may have privacy and consent implications in your jurisdiction. Those options are off by default. Site owners are responsible for their notices, consent choices, retention settings, and lawful use.
