Adding a Newsletter Subscribe link to Information box.

I have a Newsletter Unsubscribe link in my Information box. I'd like to change two things:

One: I'd like to add a Newsletter Subscribe link above it.
Two: I'd like to change "Newsletter Subscribe" to say something else.

How do I go about doing this? Thanks!

Probably even better to turn that off altogether and add the MailChimp sidebox instead.

Re: Adding a Newsletter Subscribe link to Information box.

Interesting! How would I go about doing that? Is there a charge for MailChimp?

I suppose there is, as the download at http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=425 gives you the side box, but you still need an account with them. For now, I want to use something that's free, so Zen Cart's default will suffice.

In the mean time, can anyone help me with this issue?

Thanks,
bparker

Have you looked at mailchimp.com and their pricing page? Probably suitable to your immediate needs.

Any solution without having to use MailChimp? Is there not a native way to incorporate the ZC built-in Newsletter notification feature?

Re: Adding a Newsletter Subscribe link to Information box.

There's no mod for that I'm aware of that works with the current Zencart version. The free Mailchimp service seems to handle 2000 customers and 12,000 emails a month.
