There are much better solutions than this

    While the plugin does work, it’s like most plugins from Syed/Awesome Motive. Countless Dashboard menus, plugin menus, and banners that don’t actually do anything and are only there to upsell his pro version of the plugin. Do yourself a favour and grab one of the other SMTP plugins that work just as well and don’t flood your Dashboard with constant upsell garbage.

    Hi @ahortin,

    Thanks for sharing your feedback about the plugin! We’re glad to hear the plugin is working for you, and we apologize for any confusion about the plugin layout and options.

    To clarify how it works: the free version of WP Mail SMTP helps you reliably send emails and includes tools to manage and fix email issues through ‘debug events’. However, for those considering an upgrade, we show links to ‘Email Reports’ and ‘Email Log’ pages. These pages offer a peek into the extra features you get with PRO version, but they don’t actually load a dashboard in the free version. Instead, you’ll see screenshots of what the dashboard looks like in PRO (like this: https://a.supportally.com/i/bAdvH6).

    Regarding the PRO recommendation banner, it appears by default only on WP Mail SMTP pages. If you don’t need it, you can permanently close it by clicking the ‘X’. In addition, you can also Hide the Announcements and the Dashboard Widget from the plugin options.

    Thanks again for your feedback. I hope this explanation helps clarify things.
