If I understand correctly, what you want is being able to send the same newsletter to several terms (whereas Simplenews only send to one term by default) ?

Aside from the obvious "clone content" to a different newsletter solution, I suppose there could be a way to have the newsletter vocabulary set to "multiple", I don't really know what the eventual consequences could be.

No, my terms are only for users.
I'd like to specify a taxonomy term (the same that users have) to pick up the users to send email to.
So, my control of subscribers would be a user taxonomy term.

Example: all users have a term associated.
I create a newsletter, choose a term (corresponding to users term) and the newsletter is sent only for the user who has the same term associated.

Is it possible?

Well, by default, Simplenews associate a taxonomy term to the content. If you manage to use THIS peculiar term for your users too, you're good to go. But the starting point would have to be Simplenews newsletter term, not your user term.

but is it able to handle hierarchical terms?
For example, this structure:
- product one
-- product one blue
-- product one red
- product two

If a user has a term "product one blue" i'd like to send for him all newsletters who have "product one" or "product one blue".

is it possible? how i achieve this?
if i need to change from users terms to newsletter terms, i change.

thanks

I don't think the hierarchy would be handled as you want it to. I don't know if it's easily possible to manage that... Maybe using something like "Hierarchical Select" module ?

But not sure yet. I need to test every possibility.

Thanks

6.x is bugfixing only.
7.x starts to provide plugins about recipient selection.
There are other pending issues about more flexibly selecting recipient of newsletters.

Hello,

I reopen this post because I search a similar solution for my site.
Here is my case :
On his profile the user can choose several terms (keywords/categories, e.g.: car, flower, red...). Is there a solution to create a newsletter with specific terms and send it to the users which have checked the same terms?

Thanks for your replies.

P.S. A solution for D7.
