Subscribe to Newsletter module

[spetznaz2588]

Okay after looking around I have found a solution.

what i did was I moved the files that are associated with the Subscriber back into my default directories, not the ones that were specified, I didn't even have to rename them. Here is what I did:

Original:
host/store/includes/modules/sideboxes/template_default/subscribe.php

Moved one /dir up:

host/store/includes/modules/sideboxes/subscribe.php

As this was my default path. I didn't need to rename nothing. I think I am using the default template(which is wrong), but for now I am using that. And most of you that had a problem with that, this is most likely the issue.

Other files that needed relocation:

store/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/template_default/newsletter_subscribe_definitions.php (one dir up)

store/includes/languages/english/template_default/subscribe.php

subscribe_confirm.php
unsubscribe.php

Thats 3 files, one directory up.

Hope that this helps, and hope that it isn't too confusing. If you have questions, PM me.

Cheers.

Hi, I know it's a bit belated b ut i have sorted it out now.
Sadly, it was so long ago i can't remember the solution. Something about putting things in different folders to where was initially thought.

>> Customer Email not Added to the Newsletter <<

Does anyone have the same problem as me?

[background]
Customers can subscribe for newsletter when they sign up for an account.
Non-account holders can subscribe to newsletter without an account via the sidebox (newsletter subscription mod).

I've used 3 different emails to sign up as 3 customers and all checked the newsletter subscription box upon account creation.

All 3 are added to customers list but none in the newsletter subscription list.

But when I subscribe for newsletter via the sidebox direct (no account), it's ok.

Help please!!

thks in advance!!

But when I subscribe for newsletter via the sidebox direct (no account), it's ok.

To my recollection, these are separate lists - customers and subscribers only

Thanks Kobra, by this do you mean I've got to look elsewhere for the the list of customers who subscribed for newsletter?

the only place i can find such lists is under the admin panel, customers/subscription manager.

but this is the newsletter-only list.
may i know where i can find the list of customers who subscribed for newsletter?

thanks again!

I do not recall that there is a list for viewing. When you go to tools > Newsletter and Product Notifications Manager > and create a newsletter > then select to send it- - - There is a drop box presented with options of what groups to send the letter to - - once sent the following is presented:

Finished sending e-mails!
107 emails processed. (Each checkbox indicates 1 recipient. Hover over the checkbox to see the email address.)

Watch your mail box ([email protected]) for:

* a) bounce-back messages
* b) email addresses that are no longer good
* c) removal requests.

Removals can be processed by editing Customer records in the Admin | Customers menu.

Ok I did this and when I put the sidebox on the right side the whole right side goes blank. If i put it to the left everything but my header goes blank. This is a very frustration module.

Does anyone know how to add a name imput when subscribing?

It would be a box to type name and another box below to type their email address.

Many Thanks
