one signup list but with multiple options for WHAT mailing list (interest dependant)

edited April 2013 in Questions

Sorry if this is a basic question but say you have one mailing-list on a site but you want people to signup to different lists, how would you do it?

IE a site on food with one signup form

dropdown 1: user goes on the cheese mailinglist
dropdown 2: user goes on the fruit mailing list

each signup goes to a separate list in sendy

What's the best way to do this?

  • Hi,

    What's the best way to do this?

    The only way to do this is by writing your own scripts while tapping into Sendy's API to handle this custom requirement.

    Thanks.

  • Thanks!

    So would it be using the list function
    "list the list id you want to subscribe a user to. This encrypted & hashed id can be found under View all lists section named ID"

    Is there any examples of how to use this so i can do some testing?

  • Use the 'Subscribe' API. Each item's value in your drop down menu will include the list ID. Your form will POST the list ID and email address to your backend script. The email will be subscribed to the selected list via the 'Subscribe' API.
