Sign Me Up

This plugin is a widget that adds a simple sign-up form to your WordPress site, allowing visitors to subscribe to your mailing list. It serves as a front end to phpList, the most popular open-source newsletter manager (over 1.5 million downloads according to their website). The widget connects to phpList via AJAX, which allows a visitor to subscribe without leaving your WordPress page – no refresh or redirect is necessary.

Features:

Add a simple “sign-up to our newsletter” form to your WordPress site
Provides a back-end connection to the powerful open-source mailing list manager, phpList
Maintains the consistent look, feel, and branding of your WordPress site
Uses AJAX – no page refresh or redirects. Status & feedback are displayed on the same page as the form
Minimal, elegant, simple. Seamlessly blends in with your theme by incorporating existing styling rules
Easy customization – change the text of each form element so it says exactly what you want
Widgetized – easily add it to your site via drag & drop
Error checking – client side validation via popular jQuery Validation library provides immediate feedback to the user and reduces erroneous data

If phpList and WordPress are on separate domains or subdomains, then you will need to modify the .htaccess file on the phpList domain. See Cross-Domains for more details.

常见问题

Do I need to use phpList?

Yes, this plugin specifically designed to use phpList as the mailing list manager to store the email adresses

Will it work with other mailing list services such as MailChimp?

No, this plugin will not work with MailChimp or other mailing list services. It is designed as a free open-source alternative to these paid services. So, instead it works with phpList.

Can I add additional fields for the user to fill out, such as Name?

Unfortunately, no. Currently there is no provision in the AJAX code in phpList to parse these additional parameters. As a workaround,
it is possible to request for these fields (Name, Zip Code, etc) in any of the confirmation emails sent by phpList, or have
the user update their profile with these additional details.

Can I use more than one Sign Me Up widget?

You can only have one widget per WordPress page. But, you can setup multiple widgets that each reside on a different page of your website. For example, one widget on the “Contact Us” page, a different widget on the “Latest News” page, etc. This allows you to customize the message of the signup form to whatever content you are displaying on that page.

How do I customize the response message?

The messages for a successful response can be customized via the Subscribe Page in phpList. Unfortunately, the error messages and failed submission messages cannot be customized.

Can I use the hosted version of phpList?

Yes, this should work with no issues. Just make sure that you enable cross-domain AJAX first. For more detailed instructions, see Cross-Domains.

Can phpList and WordPress live on different domains or subdomains?

Yes. Again, just make sure that you have enabled cross-domain AJAX. For more detailed instructions, see Cross-Domains.

I get the following error: “Unfortunately a network error occurred. Please try again. If this problem persists, please contact the webmaster.”

This could be due to a number of issues:

Cross-domain issues, see Cross-Domains
WWW-prefix issues, see WWW-prefix
Old incompatible versions of phpList or WordPress, see Requirements

The good news is that the plugin still works on release 5.9 of Wordpress. I cannot say I’ve tested it, just to report that in my configuration it works. The bad news is that the author’s website jaromy.net is no more. There were two matters which I shall also report in the support forum. 1. In order to see the Appearance > Widgets screen I had to install the Classic Widgets plugin. 2. I had upgraded the site to use https but the link in the configuration was still using http so anybody trying to sign up got a network error. Updating the configuration solved this.

Simple, easy to use and style. Thanks!

Thanks for this! To get it to work I needed this in my ispconfig apache 2.2 .htaccess: Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin “*” And in the ipsconfig subscription form I set it to only one email field without confirmation otherwise it would fail. If it doesn’t just work then it’s not that simple to figure out what is wrong.
