Download the plugin file to your computer and unzip it 2. Using an FTP program, or your hosting control panel, upload the unzipped plugin folder to your WordPress installation’s wp-content/plugins/ directory. 3.

That should return things to normal. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fb033e649aef128f84f8769847f2c9f9b7fdeeeab0150aeae87f51f0f2ef107b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple and effective newsletter and autoresponder](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-effective-newsletter-and-autoresponder/)󠁿 [ndre](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ndre/) 05 July 2017 Mailer Dragon is a newsletter and autoresponder plugin for WordPress.
