REQUEST: Configure FluentSMTP with wp-config.php constants (especially for multisite installations)

Open standoutsites opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

the ONLY feature that FluentSMTP is lacking from WP Mail SMPT and which is preventing us from switching to FluentSMPT. We have several large multisite sites and we need to set default SMTP settings for all ALL of the sub-sites. And we don't have the time or patience of setting up the settings on each subsite. WP Mail SMTP solves this problem by offering to set them with wp-config.php constants. I tried using the following but it doesn't seem to work. Please either create a dashboard interface to set settings for ALL subsites in one place at the newtork level or via wp-config.php file using wp constants

define('FLUENTMAIL_MAILER', 'smtp'); // or 'ses', 'mailgun', 'sendgrid', etc. define('FLUENTMAIL_SMTP_HOST', 'smtp.yourhost.com'); define('FLUENTMAIL_SMTP_PORT', 587); // 465 for SSL, 587 for TLS define('FLUENTMAIL_SMTP_ENCRYPTION', 'tls'); // 'ssl', 'tls', or leave empty for none define('FLUENTMAIL_SMTP_USERNAME', '[email protected]'); define('FLUENTMAIL_SMTP_PASSWORD', 'your-password'); define('FLUENTMAIL_FROM_EMAIL', '[email protected]'); define('FLUENTMAIL_FROM_NAME', 'Your Name or Website');

This is also interesting for us. I found some sites claiming, that you can simply setup FluentSMTP on the Main site and it should work for all sites, but it does not seem to work for me. It would be great to have some way of configuring FluentSMTP for all Sites in a network.
