Features

WPFlareMail shifts the email routing paradigm to the Cloudflare Edge. Below is a breakdown of the advanced infrastructure capabilities engineered into our ecosystem.


route

Direct Edge RoutingFree Tier+

Bypass legacy SMTP bottlenecks. The plugin intercepts the native `wp_mail()` function. Rather than negotiating a standard SMTP TCP connection, it extracts the raw email metadata, serializes it into a JSON payload, and transmits it directly to the Cloudflare Email API via HTTPS. This saves time and isolates your web server from upstream delivery failures.

receipt_long

Basic Telemetry (Last 100)Free Tier+

Track your outbound sends natively within WordPress. The plugin logs confirmation headers from Cloudflare into a custom database table. You can see what was sent, the exact dispatch timestamp, and the destination address from the WordPress dashboard.

alternate_email

Dynamic Sending ProfilesFree Tier+

Traditional SMTP services often lock you into a single verified `From` address. WPFlareMail uses Cloudflare's domain verification capabilities, allowing you to dynamically send from `support@`, `contact@`, or `billing@` natively from WordPress.

dashboard

Dashboard WidgetFree Tier+

Get immediate visual feedback on your recent outgoing emails directly from the primary WordPress admin dashboard without needing to navigate into the plugin settings.

send

Instant Send TesterFree Tier+

Verify your API tokens and domain routing instantly with a one-click test payload right from the settings panel. See the raw JSON response directly from Cloudflare.

shopping_cart

WooCommerce Deep IntegrationFree Tier+

Native hook overriding ensures the massive order receipts and customer notification HTML blasts generated by WooCommerce are perfectly compressed and dispatched. The Free version effortlessly proxies WooCommerce transactional emails to the edge, while higher tiers enable advanced queueing and PDF offloading for zero-latency checkout flows.

system_update

Automatic UpgradesFree Tier+

Stay up to date. On the Free tier, the plugin updates via the official WordPress.org repository. For commercial tiers, we use a custom updater backed by Cloudflare R2.

deployed_code

Single Site LicensePro Tier+

Install and activate WPFlareMail Pro on a single WordPress production environment. Perfect for individual applications and dedicated instances.

fingerprint

Zero-Config AuthenticationPro Tier+

Deliverability often fails due to misconfigured DNS records. WPFlareMail connects to your Cloudflare account to automatically inject the correct SPF, DKIM, and DMARC policies into your zone file. This ensures every email originates from an infrastructure recognized by Gmail and Outlook.

memory

Companion Worker DeploymentPro Tier+

Our system deploys a Cloudflare Worker script hosted on your Cloudflare account. Rather than relying on WordPress background cron jobs, your server flushes the data to the Worker and terminates the PHP process in 0ms. The Worker then handles queueing, delivery, and retries at the edge.

sync_problem

Instant Queueing & RetriesPro Tier+

Upstream email delivery can fail due to temporary throttling or outages. WPFlareMail uses Cloudflare Queues connected to your Companion Worker. If a payload encounters a failure, it is parked and retries delivery using an exponential backoff algorithm without slowing down WordPress.

replay

Manual Resend ControlPro Tier+

If an email permanently fails after exhausting all automated retries, administrators can initiate a manual resend directly from the email log viewer with a single click.

code

Payload InspectionPro Tier+

Debug like a professional. Inspect the exact raw JSON request payload and the raw HTTP response from Cloudflare for every email attempt directly inside WordPress.

cloud_upload

R2 Attachment OffloadingPro Tier+

Large attachments like WooCommerce PDFs drag down email deliverability. WPFlareMail strips attachments from the payload, uploads them into a Cloudflare R2 bucket, and replaces them with an encrypted hyperlink.

query_stats

Edge GraphQL AnalyticsPro Tier+

Large-scale logging can strain a relational WordPress database. At higher tiers, our plugin optionally bypasses local disk logging. Instead, it queries Cloudflare's GraphQL API in real-time, fetching delivery statuses and bounce diagnostics dynamically.

block

Suppression List ManagementPro Tier+

Sending to hard-bouncing emails is the fastest route to IP blacklisting. WPFlareMail proactively listens for rejection codes. When it finds them, it helps you manage and block those addresses through Cloudflare's suppression pool to protect your domain reputation.

ads_click

Engagement TrackingPro Tier+

Inject microscopic 1x1 pixels and wrap your hyperlinks to securely monitor open rates and click-through metrics, aggregating data into the GraphQL view so you know exactly how engaged your users are.

alt_route

Conditional SMTP IsolationPro Tier+

Setup granular bypass rules. Only want Cloudflare to handle WooCommerce and let standard PHPMailer handle password resets? Create exact conditional isolation rules based on subject lines or sender addresses.

deployed_code

20 Site ExpansionMax Tier+

Deploy WPFlareMail Max across up to 20 distinct WordPress installations. Ideal for developers or businesses managing a portfolio of web properties. You can provision a single Cloudflare Worker and route traffic from all 20 WordPress domains through a shared infrastructure.

all_inclusive

Infinite DeploymentsUltra Tier+

Remove all activation limits. Install the plugin across an unlimited number of client websites. Designed for agency hosting providers. Your master license key acts as a provisioning token.

visibility_off

Complete White-LabelingUltra Tier+

When managing multiple portfolios, you want the technology to reflect your brand. Our Ultra tools allow you to scrub references, logos, and support links pointing to WPFlareMail from the WordPress dashboard.

data_usage

Tenant Analytics SegregationUltra Tier+

If you scale 100 clients across a single set of Cloudflare infrastructure, you run the risk of bleeding sensitive delivery data. Our Agency infrastructure enables tag and namespace segregation per domain, isolating the fetch so your clients only see their own telemetry.

hub

WordPress Multisite Network ConfigUltra Tier+

Install WPFlareMail once inside a WPMU Network environment and selectively cascade infrastructure credentials to sub-sites, or allow tenant administrators to override routing at the child-site level.

archive

Infinite Logging & R2 ExportsUltra Tier+

Cloudflare retains analytic data for brief windows. WPFlareMail configures an export pipeline that dumps CSV datasets of every bounce, dispatch, and delivery into Cloudflare R2 storage for long-term retention beyond standard compliance limits.

support_agent

VIP Support QueueUltra Tier+

Jump to the front of the line. Ultra license queries are systematically promoted over other queues, granting you direct architectural access to our engineering team with a 12-hour SLA.
