Retention is king.
Unsubscribable is the easiest way to manage notification settings, unsubscribe links and muting of any outbound communication. Each unsubscribable object has a unique tag. Your users are able to unsubscribe from specific emails -- not just blindly unsubscribe from all incoming emails!
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'unsubscribable'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install unsubscribable
And then run "rails generator unsubscribable:install"
Make sure "secret_key_base" is defined in your secrets.yml
secret_key_base: asdfSpookySecretGoesHere
Add the following to your routes.rb:
get '/unsubscribe/:signature' => 'users#unsubscribe', as: 'unsubscribe'
Add an unsubscribe action to a controller:
Unsubscribable::unsubscribe!(params[:signature])
Add unsubscribe links to your outbound emails:
<%= link_to "Unsubscribe", unsubscribe_url(@user.unsubscribe_token_for(:tag_name)) %>
In the models you'd like to allow users to unsubscribe from:
include Unsubscribable
- Specs
- ActionMailer mixin - log when we reject outbound emails, automatically create a before_action to check prior to delivery.
- Add an internal list of tags, so we can effectively manage and render a list of unsubscribable tags for the user.
