Looks like all of the bad reviews were from 3 to 11 years ago. It works great. I love the landing pages that you can create with it as well. Some themes need to get on board with integrations.

This plugin works for me. With its shortcode I can place a sign-up form anywhere I want or need one.

Installed, got it working fairly easily. Wanted to drop a review as it has outdated reviews that don’t give it proper credit as it is right now. Almost didn’t install because of it.

Forms seem to work just fine. Subscribers are added when someone comments. Landing pages when connected to a wordpress page always get an error when attempting to process a payment. Aweber is connected to Stripe for payment processing in my case. I am running WordPress 6.0.2 and PHP 7.4 The Aweber plugin is up to date

This plugin have saved my life and job. I don’t know why people give 1 start to this plugin.

Great Idea, but when activated doesn’t work on the pages (when creating a form) only in the widget section (using the widget)
So it is useless.

Plugin dont use standard wp_widget class and can be used only once.
No guide how to use and have so bad support

A major issue for me was that you can only use the widget once, in one area on your website only. Then the widget becomes no longer available to be placed in a second sidebar, footer, etc. This was disappointing.

The form never appeared in IE and Chrome. Worked just in Opera.
Can’t format is as needed. Took me half an hour to find in the Aweber documentation how to make it at least alright.
Doesn’t work on responsive design. Sometimes the part of the form is just cut out.
You can use it just once, so if you want to have it eg in a sidebar and footer, you are out of luck.
What a waste of time.

I find this plugin is absolutely useless. While it does pull in your aWeber lists and forms created within aWeber, it does nothing more than that. It just displays the forms exactly as they look on aWeber, styling and all. The most frustrating part though, and reason for the 1-star review, is that it doesn’t give the option of a widget title (I can’t add a title/header to my widget from this plug-in), so it doesn’t integrate nicely into my theme at all.

The latest update of this plugin bricked my blog.. couldn’t even log in to uninstall it. Had to delete the aweber folder manually from my webhost before my blog was recovered but not after an hour of panic and not knowing what to do.
You had been warned.

buggy and very few features. you’re better off to search for a good newsletter / optin plugin that supports Aweber than to use this.

After a few problems with getting the form to display in any browser, I discovered that I had selected the Aweber list I wanted, but had overlooked selecting the form for that list!
Now displays and works perfectly in Firefox and Google Chrome browsers, but it is not being displayed in Internet Explorer browser v11 running on Win7 64 bit. I have tried this from 3 separate computers all running Win7 64, 2 of the home premium and the other running pro.
I have tried lowering all the security measures on IE to the point that the system keeps generating warnings and still it will not display in IE.
Lots of people use IE, so this is a major hurdle. I have contacted Aweber Labs but have not heard back as yet. If anything positive comes of it I will post that here.
I suspect that people reporting problems with the form not displaying are either overlooking the list and/or form selection in the widget, or are attempting to view it in the IE browser!
UPDATE: heard back from AWeber, said to remove this code from head section:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
Works perfectly in all browsers now, couldn’t be more pleased!
I’ve change my rating to 5 stars… AWeber Labs (NOT AWeber for the plugin) responded quickly and resolved my issue!

I use Aweber to get customers to sign up for Free Computer Network checkup.
Before I used the html code that Aweber makes available once you create the form.
Now I have updated the form on Aweber, activated the widget on my wordpress site, and you know what it just worked.
Ok I know some reviewers have asked why can’t you edit it in wordpress.
You are connecting it to Aweber, so I expect that I need to make changes in Aweber and after all once its done how often will you make changes. So it’s not an issue for me.
Thanks Aweber

Pretty useless as I can’t even connect WP and Aweber…disappointed ??
]]>Rating: 4 stars
Is there any way to create the forms directly in WordPress without having to go back to AWeber every time I need a form. Maybe some type of quick form set up for current lists? Or an iFrame of Aweber back office?
If this is just not possible, sorry for bringing it up, but very little point to flipping between different forms, unless you can create them in WordPress as well.

Got the API key, selected a list, dragged the widget to the sidebar, selected a list again, saved, and then… Nothing happened, no widget. I did notice a checkbox below my comments, and a line that says “Sign up to our list”, but the default css looks bad. I think I will delete and make my own form using Gravity Forms.

Nothing happened after I did all required steps.

Does exactly what it is supposed to. When someone goes to submit a comment on a post, they can tick the box to subscribe, if they do, it processes it perfectly.

Complete waste of time. Only one form allowed and it doesn’t even display the form… at all… it’s like it’s not even there.
