Thread: HELP to add a newsletter signup

I am new to AspDotNetStoreFront and I need to change the home page as well as the other pages with adding a newsletter sign up box to the right side of the page.
The image of the site is attached to this post.



and I am like to know how to add the sub total of the shopping cart above the main menu. This is also mentioned in the above attached image.


Hope someone can help me out with this matter as soon as possible.
Thank you!

For the item subtotal, just use the MiniCart XML package (parser token !MINICART!). You can modify the minicart xml package to appear however you want.

Regarding adding a newsletter signup, it is simple to do but requires some custom logic. Set your form to post back to a custom aspx page, and have that page dump the email address in a table. It takes just a few lines of code to do that. Make absolutely sure however that you are following secure coding practices when doing so.

Many mail servers (eg. smartermail) support a mailing list function that allows people to auto-subscribe to the list by sending an email to a specified address. You could have your custom page simple send an email to that address "from" the customer who is signing up.

If you can explain it more how I should do it? I mean to add this subscription register part to my web...


Thank you

Question is if you are looking for a newsletter signup (separate from the cart - no account) or one that will create with minimal information a customer account in your cart.

If you like to auto create accounts in your cart, based on the email given, it will require some custom coding (contact Jan at jsimacek@compunix.us for more information). If you want a simple add on to college newsletter signups without creating accounts, you can try http://www.ecommercecartmods.com/p-2...mail-list.aspx which might just do the trick you need.
