Update: 15th Decemeber 2022 Seeing how Twitter is systematically suspending large amounts of our Show Specific Twitter accounts, thought it would be a good time to "Bump" this back up for those who want to be notified of either all News Articles, or just those for the shows they want.
Update: 8th December 2021 Been getting a few emails from people asking about how they can subscribe via email so thought it was time we "bumped" this back to the top of the site.
Hey All.
As many of you have noticed over the last couple of months, the company that provided our Email Notifications decided they were not going to continue running the service. Unfortuately after being a paying customer for 7 years they didn't even bother to inform us....
Anywho....
So we went in search of an alternative and we think we've found a very good one.... and better still it's free and the owners are good guys (They even made some changes to their own product to accommodate some features we required) . I personally use their service!
Here are some of the features:
- Unlimited Show/feeds
- Instant Email Notification for any NEW or Changed Articles
- Or you can have a scheduled email/digest for 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 hrs for those who don't want too many emails.
- You can tailor the subject field of the email
- Emails contain the text of the full article (You will still need to visit the site for things like Polls etc)
- Easily turn on/off feeds via your Dashboard
- You can use this for other sites you follow and not just SpoilerTV.
I'll give you a quick walkthrough below about how to setup your Shows/Feeds/Account.
1) Go to https://blogtrottr.com/signup/
2) Enter your Email and provide a password
3) You will then be asked to Activate your Email.
4) Click the link in the email

6) To add a Show/Feed to your Dashboard click on the Subscribe to New Feed Link.

Then scroll to the RSS Feed you want, right click on it and click Copy Link.
NOTE: If you want an email for EVERY Post we make you can use our Master Feed Address which is http://www.spoilertv.com/feeds/posts/default
8) Go back to Bloggtrottr and paste that link in.
9) Optionally change the Schedule to what you want.

Also if you want to follow a specific Author, you can use a feed in this format.
https://www.spoilertv.com/feeds/posts/default/-/XX
And then replace the XX with the authors 2 digit author code that can be found on their articles.
eg For Aimee Hicks her Author Label is AM, so her feed link would be
https://www.spoilertv.com/feeds/posts/default/-/AM
We hope you find this a useful service and if you have any questions please don't hesitate in asking below in the comments.
