• Hello,

    My problem is to have a good newsletter.

    I tried Mailpress, which i find very well, but it need PHP 5.2 or better, and Sendit, which seems me a little too simple for what i want (but maybe i have not take the time to see it enough).

    So, i found this : MEENews. It seems a good newsletter plugin, but problem : i don’t find anywhere where a user can sign up !!!

    Well, the admin has the possibility to put in subrscriber one by one or to upload a global list. But i’d like members could rate themselves if they want subscribe or to the contrary unsubscribe.

    Perhaps i didn’t look correctly. I hav’nt seen any widget to place in a side bar, but i have read this :

    Gives write permissions to the directory to be able to upload custom headers and custom buttons also

    Place `<?php if (class_exists(‘TvNewsletter’)): ?><!– place your HTML code here –><?php TvNewsletter::activateNewsletterPlugin(); ?><!– place your HTML code here –><?php endif; ?>
    `
    if you want users to be register with a defined list simply choose the id of the list and place it between the parenthesis in this way

    <?php if (class_exists('TvNewsletter')): ?><!-- place your HTML code here --><?php TvNewsletter::activateNewsletterPlugin(2); ?><!-- place your HTML code here --><?php endif; ?>

    In this case the users will be entered in list number 2

    – OK, if it means that provide a place to sign up for vistors ? I’m not sure, because i find it unclear. Anyway, i attempt it, but my problem is where can i input this code ?

    In a text widget or in an empty page, it doesn’t work ! Of course.

    – So, I look after my pages and posts in the wp folder files, but it seems to me pots and pages exists only in text in the database.

    Sorry, i’m a beginner, lol.

    – Well, i’ didnt found the file where i could insert this code to check if it s the right code.

    – So my questions are :

    1) Is there someone who knows MeeNews and can help me ?
    2) Where can i insert this code ?
    3) Is there another plugin ok to create a good newsletter ?
    4) ideally, only for aproved users of the site ?

    Thank u very much.

  • I can’t get it working either – it doesn’t matter where I put the code nothing appears…

    And where you tried to put the code in ?

    Well. They are some news.

    You can put the code :

    – In the theme side bar file, manually
    – In a page or in a post, by using a plugin like PHP Execution

    But it doesn’t work very well. It produces a sign up form, and that’s good. But it produces something weird too, a kind of css and php functions mixed; and that’s not good.

    – I wrote to the producer, and he answered me today the last 2.5 version is just finished and include a widget.

    I downloaded it, but I don’t see the widget.

    Still a little patience, or be brave enough to enter into the code problem. ??

    I would like to know the answer to this as well

    You have to activate the second widget plugin, then add the code:
    <?php if (class_exists(‘TvNewsletter’)): ?>
    <?php TvNewsletter::activateNewsletterPlugin(); ?>
    <!– place your HTML code here –>
    <?php endif; ?>

    and the subscription box will appear.
    My problem now is the confirmation link! For some reason, the confirmation url doesn’t seem to work.

    When you say add the code, my question is : add the code WHERE ?

    thanks !
