Aweber Intergration

[buyashed]

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone has succesfully intergrated aweber with zencart. So that when people purchase the get added to the aweber list.

Thanks for any advice at all.

Cheers, ToNy!

I would be really very interested in this as well.

This sounds like a recipe for complaints. Just because someone has bought from you once doesn't mean they want to receive an endless stream of marketing material from you.

An aWeber sidebox would probably be a better idea. You want them to opt-in intentionally.

Not really, I was thinking of something like this: once people choose to opt-in the mailing list when they register, they will be added to Aweber list.

Hey Scott,

I was actually looking at using aweber to handle my newsletter instead of zencart, because i aweber i can narrow it down to where they live. I was also hoping it would only add them to aweber if they tick the subscribe box as with the zencart newsletter and planning on having it double opt in.

Besides it would be a great way to send an email asking for some feedback and a rewiew.

Cheers, ToNy!

Interesting suggestion. The approach I took for MailChimp was to remove newsletter registration from signup and account info so that it's only available in a sidebox - fewer moving parts and failure paths.

Good luck,
Scott

hey, can anyone help me on this? I tried to intregrate aweber into my site but the instruction says

1. Change "template_default" to your template name.
2. Upload "includes" folder to shop ROOT Folder.
3. Login Admin > Tools > Install SQL Patchs (aweber_install.sql to "install it")
4. And then go to Admin > Configuration > AWeber Configuration to configure it.
5. Done

it says upload includes folder to shop root folder. If im going to do that, the includes folder in my shop root will be overwrited by the new includes directory of aweber.. it also says in the instruction that ther are no files to overwrite.. im confused... help.....

tnx.. looking forward to your response.. God Bless
