 Designing a form to subscribe clients to multiple Autoresponders
While typically an opt-in form is designed to subscribe your clients to a single autoresponder for a specific purpose, it’s also possible to have that same opt-in form subscribe your clients to multiple autoresponders at the same time!
Why would you want to subscribe people to multiple autoresponders? Any number of reasons…
One common reason is when a form is created that opts people into a specific interest Autoresponder, but the sites owner would also like to subscribe those people to their company ezine.
Whatever the reason, 1ShoppingCart's system can take care of your needs.
And modifying the form to accomplish this is really easy!
Simply look for the following line of code in the form code snippet (where "XXXXXX" is the Autoresponder ID):
<input name="defaultar" type="hidden" id="defaultar" value="XXXXXX">
This line tells the form which Autoresponder to subscribe your clients to. In order to allow for a multiple autoresponder subscription, simply remove the word ‘default’, create a duplicate of the whole line (copy and paste!) and update the autoresponder ID!
For example, if you wanted to subscribe your clients to 3 separate autoresponders after filling out your opt-in form, Your form code would contain the following:
<input name="ar" type="hidden" id="ar" value="XXXXX">
<input name="ar" type="hidden" id="ar" value="YYYYY">
<input name="ar" type="hidden" id="ar" value="ZZZZZ">
In this example any reference to the word "Default" has been removed, and "XXXXX", "YYYYY" and "ZZZZZ" represent the unique autoresponder IDs as provided by our system.
This example would assign any signups to all three listed autoresponders, but you can easily subscribe your clients to 2, 5 or more using this method! |
