Ajax Newsletter Widget for Wordpress

I’ve just finished to build my first widget for Wordpress today - Ajax Newsletter Widget :)

I’m using Sidebar Widgets Plugin (by Automattic, Inc.) and Ajax Newsletter Plugin (by Tiago Pocinho), but this last one didn’t have a widget built for it. After searching a little bit the internet and couldn’t find it, I decided that it’s time for me to dig into it and find out how I can make it. Since it’s my first time coding something for Wordpress, it took me few hours to get it done, but I’m happy to have it now working on my site.

A. Tip

To convert pdf to word files, you might have to buy software. But which software is right for you? Find out at Investintech.com

Downloads

Changelog
v1.1 : I changed the way widget options are retrieved to avoid a nasty warning message.

Installation
After downloading this plugin, extract the directory “wp-ajax-newsletter”.
Go to the Wordpress back-office and activate the plugin. This will create the needed tables in the database. After that activate the Ajax Newsletter Widget.

If you already have Ajax Newsletter Plugin installed, just download only the widget zip file and unzip it in “wp-ajax-newsletter”. Then go to plugin page and activate it. That’s it! :smile:

You can find more details about original Ajax Newsletter Plugin - including instructions, downloads etc. - here!

Enjoy!

Are you aware if the original plugin is supported by 2.3.1? I can’t seem to find any references to compatibility, but am having trouble.

Thanks!

I don’t know, probably not…
I’ll try to make it as soon as I’ll get a chance.

there are several newsletter plugins for wordpress out there but none of them offer an admin option to add additional fields to the form subscription (ie name or birthday or phone number for sms updates) the additional info would then be displayed in the user list on the newsletter admin panel. the newsletter plugin by tribulant.com advertises this feature but it doesnt work sadly…I tried it out. My clients would like to be able to at least collect name inoformation so they know more than just email addresses of subscribers. also these extra fields would need to have option of being required or not required for ajax validation. I would gladly make a donation for your time if you feel these features are possible. sadly I am a designer and not a true coder.
