Fix newsletter sidebox link?

[damiancds]

Is it possible to fix the Newsletter link in the information box, so that when they're subscribed, it says unsubscribe and vice versa?

Better yet, is there a way to have the link say "Newsletter" and when you click it, it will as to unsubscribe only if you're already subscribed, and ask if you want to subscribe if you're not already subscribed?

This is one of those 'yes, but you'll have to code it that way yourself' questions. Zencart won't do that by default.

My guess is that it wouldn't be that difficult, so someone may be along to describe how.

Is there a way to remove the link from the sidebox, but leave it in the my account page, because when i turned it off, it removed the my account link too. I think that might be the simplest solution

You can use your templates and overrides and comment out the code for:

  if (SHOW_NEWSLETTER_UNSUBSCRIBE_LINK == 'true') {
    $information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_UNSUBSCRIBE) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_UNSUBSCRIBE . '</a>';
  }

and change it to:

  if (SHOW_NEWSLETTER_UNSUBSCRIBE_LINK == 'true') {
//    $information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_UNSUBSCRIBE) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_UNSUBSCRIBE . '</a>';
  }

NOTE: I would go for the better idea of taking them to a subscribe/unsubscribe ... the more the merrier ...
