Send Secondary Messages Settings

1. Send secondary messages after xx-yy hours allows you to set the delay to wait before sending the secondary message.
2. Send only if the user has replied – This option allows you to choose to send secondary messages only if the user replied to the primary/first message you sent them.

   ➡  If selected, the secondary message will only be sent if the user has responded to the primary message that SU Social has sent out.

   ➡  The ‘Retry’ option will allow you to set how many times to retry to send the secondary messages. It works together with the number of hours that you want it to operate.
