header email button

Hi guys,

Can this email be integrated with acymailing somehow.

Basically, what I am looking at doing is this:

1. I will have it setup basically how the template is setup. (i.e. asking guests (or customers) to register their interest in my services.
2. This would somehow get shot to my website email and an autoresponder would instantly send a registration email out to the customer.

Thats it.

At the moment, if people enter their email address in the box, and register, where abouts in Joomla is this supposed to store the email address so that we can see this in the backend.

This technically mightn't be a Gavick issue, but more about setting up emails for autoresponding.

Thanks

Hi, I am trying to edit this post, but it is saying I cant.

I was going to make it easier and say

"At the moment, if people enter their email address in the box and registe, (or in the template case, 'Get Started Today), where abouts in Joomla is this supposed to store the email address so that we can see in the backend.

I have the exact same problem with this template, where should we setup in the backend all the settings? I would like to receive all the inputs to my email.

Any suggestions or thoughts?

Hi

This is a normal form written with html. It's not attached to anything. But You can add a module there as for example ACYmailing newsletter. You simply need to publish this module in this module position instead. Of course some additional styling may be required to make it look the same.

Thanks teitbite,

Excellent help offline to align the AcyMailing module correctly with a little css. Even though it took 5 mins, I appreciate the willingness to help out for 'no money'.

In the end to others with query...... didn't use the form provided. Replaced it with ACYmailing module and linked autoresponder (or welcome message) to registered email address. It kept the same theme for buttons and fields, allbeit a little bit mis aligned. Teitbite assisted in cleaning by providing code for me to edit the overide.css in template settings, in order to fix.

Great help.

Thanks.

Hi

Can You please provide the code ? In case someone else may need it ?

Find below the code to replace the form provided on the home page and the css required to align the ACYmailing module.

Initial steps, as mentioned above, was to load an acymailing module in the 'header' position. By editing the css in the template files with the code below, and overiding the template in the backend, the website now looks just like it should.

Code: Select all

.acymailing_module tr:hover {
 
    background-color: transparent;
 
}
 







.acymailing_module input.inputbox {
 


    border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px;
 
    color: #999999;
 
    display: inline-block;
 
    font-size: 20px;
 
    font-style: italic;
 
    font-weight: 300;
 
    height: 68px;
 
    margin: 0 !important;
 
    padding: 0 30px;
 
    width: 456px !important;
 
}
 





table.acymailing_form {
 


    width: 733px;
 
}
 



I know this post is a few months old at this stage but I found a different solution that might be of use to someone.

I found that the responsiveness of the signup form fell apart on smaller devices so I thought of using the blank form from GavickPro and building a newsletter subscription into it.

So I found this link on the Acymailing site and it’s for building a simple html form to allow you to add people to a mailing list.
http://www.acyba.com/en/forum/5-how-to/ ... -form.html

I added the fields as in that link to the simple form in the template and it worked quite well. I was able to keep the website responsive and sign new subscribers to my Acymailing lists.

You may need to change input[type="email"] to input[type="text"] on line 301 of template.css to get it to look the same as I changed the field in the form to match what was in the link.

Cheers,
