FeedBlitz Tutorial

Hi DC,

Reply with a copy of the html code provided by Feedblitz and I’ll let you know what goes where.

According to FeedBlitz, you can find this by “logging into FeedBlitz, go to your Newsletter Center, and click the HTML subscription form button on the right.”

Most likely, you’ll need to include
https://www.feedblitz.com/f/f.fbz?AddNewUserDirect
as the form action field,
EMAIL
as the e-mail field name, and
something like this for the hidden fields (it’ll vary as this is what tells feedblitz what list to subscribe the visitors:

<input name="EMAIL_" maxlength="64" type="hidden" size="25" value="">
<input name="EMAIL_ADDRESS" maxlength="64" type="hidden" size="25" value="">
<input name="FEEDID" type="hidden" value="UNIQUE VALUE">
<input name="PUBLISHER" type="hidden" value="UNIQUE VALUE">

I’m happy to confirm after seeing code. Please let me know. If I don’t hear back in a few days, I’ll assume you got it working.

Thanks, here’s the code:

<form name=”FeedBlitz_e7dbf6fc3b7811e29f67003005ce8903″ method=”POST” action=”https://www.feedblitz.com/f/f.fbz?AddNewUserDirect”&gt;
Enter your Email
<input style=”display:none” name=”EMAIL” maxlength=”64″ type=”text” size=”25″ value=””>
<input name=”EMAIL_” maxlength=”64″ type=”hidden” size=”25″ value=””>
<input name=”EMAIL_ADDRESS” maxlength=”64″ type=”hidden” size=”25″ value=””>
<input name=”FEEDID” type=”hidden” value=”868703″>
<input name=”PUBLISHER” type=”hidden” value=”27710832″>
<input type=”button” value=”Subscribe me!” onClick=”FeedBlitz_e7dbf6fc3b7811e29f67003005ce8903s(this.form);”>

Hi,

When i enter the details as specified I get a http 403 error. You are not authorised to view this page.

What could the problem be?

Thanks

Dan

Dan,

Please send me a link to a page where the widget is installed so I can check it out.

Thanks,

it’s the green box at the top of each page

Thanks

Hi Dan,

It appears to be working for me. I was able to complete the registration process and subscribe to the site.

Maybe the error is occurring for you if we are/were logged into the FeedBlitz?

BK

I think you must be right, I tried from a different browser and it worked fine

Thanks for your help

Dan
