ggis Subscribe gives authors an easy way to insert a form that performs emailing list subscription management.

Features and Requirements

• Wordpress 2.5 or greater
• An email list to subscribe to. Currently supports:
  • ezmlm lists – subscribe by sending email to listname-subscribe-your=address.com@domain.com
• Designation of success page

Setup

Using ggisSubscribe is a very simple matter of performing a short setup and then inserting a simple code in your post.

1. Download and install plugin using standard means. Download here.
2. View the ggisSubscribe options from the Settings menu.
3. Add the email address of your mailing list. If you have more than one list, use commas between each address.
4. Enter the URL of your thank you page (next page)
5. Enter the URL of you main subscription management page.
   • Yes. Create and publish your subscription management first and then finish with your ggisSubscribe options.

Usage

The subscription form may be inserted on a post, page, or text widget by including the following code in your text.

[-%ggis-subscribe %formtype "%listname"-]

Here is an explanation of the fields:

• ggis-subscribe – identifies the code (required)
• formtype – identifies the form type
  • 0, default – full subscription management form
  • 1 – subscribe only form , requires “listname”
• listname – identifies the list to include in a subscription only form

See the demonstration forms.

In a Widget?

A subscription form may be placed into the standard text widget using the methods above. For widget use, I suggest using only formtype=1, the short form.

To Do

1. Add template tag output
2. Add other list manager types
