news block
 
Hi

we want to add a subscribe to our newsletter field on our site, so people dont have to register to subscribe to newsletters, for example on https://www.idisplays.co.uk/, there is a newsletter block on the bottom right side.

does anyone know if this is a part of a x cart gold setup or would i have to purchase a mod or
get x cart to do some custom coding?

thanks

Turn on the 'News Management' module in 'Modules' :)

Hi

thanks, the news management module is switched on, we have set up a news list, but the only way someone can subscribe to it is by registering, we want it so that people do not have register to sign up to the newsletter.

any other ideas?

thanks

You don't have to register to sign-up, you just put your e-mail in the box and hit the 'go' button. Make sure you have it set to 'available for subscription' when you set up the newsletter.

Hi

we have it set available for subscription, and the option only appears at the bottom of the register page (http://www.sugarrays.co.uk/shop/register.php).

how do we get it to appear on our home page as a box to allow users to fill in their email address and hit go?

thanks

Did you remove it from your home.tpl template?
