To add a redirect link back to your site on the "Almost There" MailChimp notification page:
Log into MailChimp
Click on Lists Tab
Click on "Forms"
From Drop Down Box (LHS) select "Sign Up 'Thank you' Page
Click the "Design it" tab
Click in the box that holds the "we need to confirm your email address....." this brings up an "edit your contents" box
place your cursor where you would like to place your text and link; type your message, and then click on the 'insert/edit link' button on the tool bar of your "edit contents" box (this is to the right of the bulleted list botton). Fill in your URL, press ok. When you are happy, press save on your 'edit your contents' box; save and exit on the main edit page.
Last step: check to see if it works!
hope this helps
I would like to help
So that when your customer creates an account (for the checkout process), if they tick the Newsletter box, their first name, last name and email address are automatcially sent to your MailChimp mailing list using the MailChimp API. If they edit their account and unsubscribe, that cancellation is automatically sent to MailChimp too so you'll automatically have an up-to-date list of people who are happy to receive email marketing material from you.
So for starting i think we must make a database entry which we can handle in the backend, so there we can give a few settings, like:
- enable/disable
- BOX_MAILCHIMP_NEWSLETTER_ID
- BOX_MAILCHIMP_NEWSLETTER_U
Hi Scott! Fantastic Mod! Just installed and works perfectly!
I was wondering, since my customers are my main target for newsletters, is there anything wrong with adding your sidebox code to the bottom of the tpl_checkout_success page? I tested it and it seems to work ok....although it would look better centered.thoughts?PHP Code:
<h3 id="checkoutSuccessThanks" class="centeredContent"><?php echo TEXT_THANKS_FOR_SHOPPING; ?></h3>
</div>
<?php
//
// MailChimp Sidebox Mod
//
// test if box should display
$show_mailchimp_sidebox = true;
if ($show_mailchimp_sidebox == true) {
require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_mailchimp_sidebox.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'sideboxes'). '/tpl_mailchimp_sidebox.php');
$title = BOX_HEADING_MAILCHIMP_SIDEBOX;
$left_corner = false;
$right_corner = false;
$right_arrow = false;
require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);
}
?>

OK, the work to add subscribe to the account creation page is underway, and will be complete sometime this month. You will need to make more changes (which will be documented) if you are also running my Newsletter Discount mod.
