I have all my notifications set for appointments and events 'COOL'.
Next trick, I need to email all my clients from time to time as a bulk email, right now i need to email wishing them a Merry Xmas and that we have moved them from the old system to Amelia and they will receive an email soon advising them of this new upgrade (once I add them across as a new user to WP) I want to do this so it's not a shock to them, like a pre account email, also on a weekly basis we will want to email a link to students of the class video recap.
Can this be done? if so awesome! How? If not, when will I be able to do that or how long before I can.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
At the moment we don't have any notifications which would be sent like that. If you have access to your database, you can try a workaround - change birthdays for all your customers in wp_amelia_users table, so the plugin thinks your customers' birthdays are all on December 25th (for example). Then, when you configure a cron job for sending Scheduled e-mails, you can modify the "Birthday Greeting" notification template to say what you need to inform your customers about.
That will send out an e-mail to all your customers who's "birthday" is on December 25th. After that, you would, of course need to delete all birthdays from the database, so this message isn't sent again next Christmas.
Unfortunately, that's the only way (for now) to send out these e-mails from time to time.
