You’re the best. Thanks tons.

All great stuff. Thanks. You’re being super duper helpful.

If a reader gets the list signup with a series of groups shown, may they select more than one group?

For example, let’s say the general list is “Web Opt-Ins” and the groups are “All New Blog Posts In All Categories”, “Which Wine Goes With What”, “All About Cooking Beef”, “All About Cooking Chicken” and so forth.

It might look like this:

“I’m glad you like our awesome writing at StuffYouNeverEat.com. Just tell us what you want to get by email.

_____ All New Blog Posts In All Categories

_____ Which Wine Goes With What

_____ All About Cooking Beef

_____ All About Cooking Chicken”

(I’m totally making this up, but I think you get my question.)

Then, from the back end, can I have my “All New Blog Posts In All Categories” receive all new blog posts, while each group receive a series of pre-written messages a la the MC Auto-Responder system?

Naturally, in this scenario my goal is to have the same email address receive two totally different streams of messages, assuming they opted into more than one group.

All great info. THANKS!

Just so I am clear, I can approach Q1 and Q2 in different ways.

With Q1, I use the snippet of code and essentially predefine the group selection for the reader based on the landing page from which they sign-up. Right?

In Q2, and as a way of using the Plugin and not the code, I would create the same MC signup form with all the possible groups on it and let the reader choose which subscriptions he/she wants. Right?

As for Q3, I see where the paid subscriptions are available. I even watched a demo video. Most excellent.

So I think I figured it out.

It seem that when you are the only one posting to a blog, you don’t get the Author blurb when you click through to a single post.

I discovered this by generating a second user profile of myself and posted. Viola! My blurb and Gravatar appeared next to each post. I deleted the post and the author info next to the posts vanished.

To fix this, I’ve left the alternate user in place and will post simple event scheduling updates; nothing critical that needs to be associated with an author. That way Twenty-Eleven will read my site as a multi-author blog and display the author info next to posts.

Thanks for engaging me on this. It pushed me to explore more what was happening.

Thanks Ipstenu.

I initially agreed with you. Unfortunately, my author profile would not display next to my posts. I’ve since created another profile as an author only (not admin). The post under that login shows my profile with the post and allows for anyone to search for other articles by me.

I’m just wondering if there is a way for Admin posts to display similarly. It’s kludge to have two logins.

Dave,

I’m having a similar issue with twenty-eleven. What “button” did you push?

Thanks,

Jason
