New Lists Set Up Question

[enquiries]

Hello,

I am about to run telephone seminars where people can book onto from my website or call to enroll. Is it possible to have the email addresses go straight from my website from a payment page to a designated list as well as me being able to manually update?

Thank you

Hi Sharon,

If a plugin is not available for your payment script you would have to add some code of your own to it.  An example can be found here:

http://listmailpro.com/forum/index.php?topic=1160.0

These types of customizations are not very involved.  I would take this on for as low as $40.

Note that some changes may be overwritten by future updates of your payment software.

Hi Dean,

Thank you very much for your response.

I do not understand the technical side of things so I would like to clarify.

I need the facility to link the names and email addresses from my website payment page to the relevant list on listmailpro (for example list 2). I already have a newsletter on my website which automatically goes to list 1. Would it be good to send the link that you have suggested to my website people? Does that explain what they need to do? Or what you have suggested to do for $40 does that include the link from my website or is that some programming that needs to be done in my listmailpro account for this to happen?

Thank you,

Sharon

Hi Dean,

I am running taster seminars this weekend and will direct people to my website to book on a future seminar. It is important that I have this linked from my website to listmail by Friday. Please can you respond as soon as possible to my last question.

Many thanks,

Sharon

Hi Sharon,

The code from the link I sent needs to be added to your payment processing script so it is executed when a sale is verified.  Yes, this custom script can subscribe paid users to List 2 while your main page will continue to subscribe users to List 1.

Yes, I recommend forwarding the link (and LMP forum access, so they can read it) or copying and pasting the post to your web designers.  If they know just a little bit of PHP they should be able to handle it.

Hi Dean,

Thank you for your response.

I have an email to send to my database where they can click on to register for a free seminar, this takes them to a landing page where they complete their first name and email address.

I have sent your link to the website people who have linked this to listmail but the names go to list one which is my newsletter. How do they/I link it to list 2?

When people decide to book on the paid seminar they can do so through my website. The web people are arranging that on the payment page their first name and email address goes to listmail and I would like these names to go to list 3. The website people have spent a long time today trying to link this but have been unsuccessful.

It is very important that this is linked by tomorrow (Friday UK time) as customers will be booking on the paid seminar at the weekend.

Please can you urgently advise the best way to do this. It doesn't matter who does it whether I pay you $40 or the website people, I just need to have it actioned as soon as possible.

Thank you for your help,

With kind regards,

Sharon

Hi Sharon,

You will see in the code here a portion like this:

Code: [Select]

$url = "http://example.com/mail/signup.php?list=1&email=$payer_email&fname=$first_name&lname=$last_name&seq=1&del=0";
All you should have to do is modify the "list=1" part to say "list=2".

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
