`benecaster_after_email_send`

Action Free Since v1.0.0

Fires after any Benecaster email send attempt completes. The $sent parameter indicates whether wp_mail() accepted the message for handoff to the mail server — true does not confirm delivery, only that the local handoff succeeded. If $sent is false, the benecaster_email_send_failed action will also fire with additional error context.

Use this hook for logging, analytics tracking, or post-send side effects that should run after every email regardless of type. A type-specific variant is available — append the email type to the hook name (e.g. benecaster_after_email_send_welcome) to target a single email type; the $email_type parameter is omitted on the type-specific variant. The type-specific variant fires automatically for custom email types — no extra wiring is needed. Stable built-in type strings are listed on the benecaster_after_email_send_type reference page.

Parameters

`$recipient`	`string`	—	Recipient email address

`$show_id`	`int\|null`	—	Show ID, or null
