Adding checkbox to WPSC checkout form

    Hi all,

    I am trying to add a custom MC4WP sign-up checkbox to the checkout page of my WPSC webshop. Unfortunately it seems that upon purchase no account is added to the MC list.

    Since the WPSC form is a rather complicated one, I suspect this uses an out-of-the-box way of sending the the user e-mail adress. So how does the MC4WP plugin “detect” the e-mail adress in the form? Does it need a label or name tag to recognise the field?

    If necessery I can post the form code but beware, it’s huge…

    Best regards!

    Hi thwbaur,

    Our plugin detects fields that it should take into account by it’s name field prefix. That means that if you have a field that looks like this:

    <input name="email" />

    You will have to change it to look like this:

    <input name="mc4wp-email" />

    You can find more info about this in our Knowledge Base. Hope that helps!

    Hi Ines,

    Thank you very much for your reply. The current e-mail field is quite a complex thing for me, see: 

    <?php
            }elseif( $wpsc_checkout->checkout_item->unique_name == 'billingemail'){ ?>
               <?php $email_markup =
               "<div class='wpsc_email_address'>
                  <p class='" . wpsc_checkout_form_element_id() . "'>
                     <label class='wpsc_email_address' for='" . wpsc_checkout_form_element_id() . "'>
                     " . __('Enter your email address', 'wpsc') . "
                     </label>
                  <p class='wpsc_email_address_p'>

                  " . wpsc_checkout_form_field();

                   if(wpsc_the_checkout_item_error() != '')
                      $email_markup .= "<p class='validation-error'>" . wpsc_the_checkout_item_error() . "</p>";
               $email_markup .= "</div>";

    I am not sure where to put the name=”mc4wp-email”. also, by changing the field name, does the rest of the code still recognise the input?
