You could also add the consent into the mail sent when double opt- in is set.
The subscriber gets a confirmation mail to confirm your subscription. That is enough for gdpr

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, but as I tried to explain that is not enough !
The subscription form should also provide a link to unsubscribe directly.
Now the subscriber does not have a newsletter, and is not able to unsubscribe.
Or he has to send a mail seperately to the site, demanding to unsubscribe from the mail list.
you cannot access Manage Subcription page without receiving a mail containing the link to this page as far as I know.
Regards,

Hi found the solution by looking into the code ??
You need to update your manual so users can find this without problems.
To populate the first-name and last-name fields in MailPoet, you need to add the following fields into your form:
your-first-name
your-last-name

One remark though, if the user enters his data again but with a different first-name and last-name, the data in MailPoet is not updated !!
That should be an improvement if that is added to the plugin ??
Now I am happy with the way it works

Hi,

In my form I use list:3 and that works fine !
You can add more lists with list:3 list:4 etc
Hope this helps you out

Hi Tamim
I have tested the new version, and this looks fine to me.
Now you are able to put text between the two checkboxes.
That makes it a lot more clear to the users.

Also I found the problem with the blank lines on one of my sites.
The one with the problems was created with Page Builder that called the form.
The one working properly was a page that was not created with Page Builder.
So it appears that Page Builder is doing something with the form.
After recreation of a page containing the form without using Page Builder it looks OK !

Hi eshantikweb

Thanks for your explanation, I have an account at slack currently.
Also at www.remarpro.com I have completed the translation in Dutch.
So it should come available after approval of the Dutch translation team.
Thanks again !

Hi Tamim

The problem with the blank lines is on one site.
I have updated another site, and that looks well (same as your form).
So I need to figure out the difference in settings.
I ment text between the opt-in and opt-out checkbox.
e.g. checkbox opt-in “subscribe for newsletter”
Text “If you want to unsubscribe please set checkbox below”
checkbox opt-out “Unsubscribe from newsletter”
That does not seem to be possible, so I have to put the explaining text above the checkboxes. No problem that does cover my problem.

Can you invite me for the Dutch translation ?
I want to help out here, but the transations I entered are gone.
Thanks for your help,
Peter

Hi Tamim

I have some more remarks about the implementation.
The form does look a bit messy
I get the following layout
line 1 email address
line 2 text line
line 3 blank line (not added by me)
line 4 blank line (not added by me)
line 5 blank line (not added by me)
line 6 checkbox for opt-in
line 7 text for opt-in checkbox
line 8 blank line (not added by me)
line 9 blank line (not added by me)
line 10 blank line (not added by me)
line 11 checkbox for opt-out followed by the label for this checkbox

Where do the empty lines come from ?
Why is the label of the checkbox in a different position ?
How can I put text between the checkbox to opt-in, and the checkbox to opt-out ?

Hi Tamim

My mistake forget remark 2 !!
You have added the unsubscribe possibillity, so it works as expected !
But my remarks 3 and 4 need some attention.

Hi tamim

great I have been testing the unsubscribing form.
I have some remarks about the behaviour
1. Indeed if the boolean is set, then the status is changed to “unsubscribed”
2. If I add the field to the form without the boolean for signin, I still get
the boolean checkbox for signin. That is a bit unexpected, I was expecting to
get only the checkbox for opt-out.
3. If I select both the boxes I would expect that if the subscriber is
unsubscribed that the state would be changed to subscribed. The unsubscribe
checkbox seems to
get the activated value instead of the subscribe checkbox in that case.
4. I need to test if the conditional possibillity is working. E.g. if I select
subcribe and afterwards the unsubscribe checkbox, it should remove the
subscribe checkbox.

Hi Tamim

The statement mailpoet uses is not complete. If you send a mail to a subscriber you always need to provide a link to unsubscribe. Also if a subscriber even with double optin later decides to remove the subscription, you need to provide a link for that purpose.
One way to do that is provide an option in the subscription form. If this option is set than the subscription will be altered into a removal.
So either mailpoet should alter the plugin, Or with this plugin a field to ubsubscribe should be added.

Hi thanks for your reply
I know that you can opt-out when you get a mail from the plugin.
But new gdpr regulation in the EU demands an option to opt-out yourselves.
E.g. enter your mail address and select opt-out.
Otherwise you need to send an email to the website to request opt-out.
So a link within the form would be great. In design mode there seems to be a tag to do that. But I cannot get it to work
Thanks for your help
