I have been so spoiled by the simplicity of the Sebenza Constant Contact module being able to add a contact directly to the appropriate list, I thought there was an easy way to also do this with the subscribe box you add to a site. The HTML snippet that CC gives you send you to a popup screen and you have to make choices from there. For some reason, I thought there used to be a "simpler" version that you could submit directly to a Contact List (like the Sebenza module lets you do). I can't seem to find any such thing.

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
Hi Leslie,
To my knowledge, the CC subscribe that Sebenza provides actually hits the CC API in the background. You'd need a similar module for your CMS (presuming you're not using Miva Merchant 5 otherwise you'd use Sebenza's module)

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
Does the site run Miva Merchant at all? If so make it a "Page", you can get Sebenza's CC module to run on any page in a miva site.James Harrell

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
Hi Leslie,
It should be CC i.e.
<input type="hidden" name="Action" value="CC" />
You can use a ConstantContact module from Sebenza. Sebenza supplies it for free. For every new store, you will need to get a compiled module from Sebenza. Constant Contact module is store specific.
Thank you,

Hi Ben,
Thanks, I'll give that a try and report back. And yes, the store IS using the Sebenza Constant Contact module.

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
That didn't seem to work either. The email address I tried to subscribe with didn't get added. I did verify that the email address was not already subscribed.
Here's the code I am trying to use:
Code:<form method="post" action="&mvt:global:secure_sessionurl;"> <input type="hidden" name="Store_Code" value="&mvte:global:Store_Code;"> <input type="hidden" name="Action" value="CC" /> <input type="hidden" name="Screen" value="SFNT"> <input type="hidden" name="ConstantContactEmail" value="1"> <input type="text" name="ShipEmail" size=25 value=""> <br /> <input type="hidden" name="ConstantContactList[1]:ic" value="WOMAN"> <br /> <input type="submit" value="Subscribe"> </form>

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
The module is installed and working perfectly via the OCST Checkout: Customer Information > Customer Fields. So obviously, everything is configured correctly. I'm trying to get it to work "outside the box" on a screen other than checkout as prescribed in the configuration sent by Scott.Leslie Kirk

I can, but if I recall correctly the module uses the Shipping email address.Leslie Kirk

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
Ben, thanks for all your suggestions. It looks like the Constant Contact module has stopped working. I've opened a support ticket with Scott.Leslie Kirk

Re: Different kind of Constant Contact subscribe box
I'm on the Sebenza website and there is no link to download the Constant Contact module - there is a page describing and linking to Constant Contact but I don't see a link to the module itself. Am I crazy or just so tired that I don't see it? http://www.sebenza.com/company/constant_contact.html
