Additional Fields in Subscription Form

July 19, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Is there a way to have fields other than those you are providing in the create form section?

My client would like additional info other than just name, email and phone. Instead of Company for example, could we say Agency?

Yes. Once the form is created, you can then add the fields you want. For example, when a form is created it looks something like this:

input type=”hidden” name=”cf” value=”subscribe”
input type=”hidden” name=”listid” value=”1521″
input type=”hidden” name=”adminid” value=”132″
input type=”hidden” name=”subscribe” value=”1″
input type=”hidden” name=”redirect” value=”"
input type=”hidden” name=”subject” value=”"
input type=”hidden” name=”send_results” value=”1″
table border=”0″ cellpadding=”0″ cellspacing=”0″

Email Address:

input name=”email” value=”" size=”30″

input type=”submit” value=”Subscribe”

All you have to do is add in the above area after Subscribe:

input type=”phone” value=”Phone”

But, make sure it’s within the “form” tags.

Will this info be captured via the list? I think I saw something in the support area saying custom fields would not be captured.

You can add additional fields and the results will be mailed to you if you choose. However, only First Name, Last Name, Email, Company, URL, and Phone will be stored in the database.
