Linking Your Email Provider with Your Website
Before you can display your email opt-in form, you need to link your email provider with your website. To do this, hover over Themify Ultra and click on Themify Settings. Scroll down to Integration API and click on Optin. From there, you can connect your email provider, such as Mailchimp or GetResponse, by entering your API key.
Displaying Your Email Opt-In Form
Once you've connected your email provider, you can display your email opt-in form. To do this, turn on the builder and drag in the opt-in form to where you want it displayed on your website. You can also select the opt-in provider and list. If you have different categories of blog posts, you can create different opt-in forms with different lists.
Using Layout Parts for Efficiency
If you want to save time and avoid having to recreate your opt-in form every time you want to display it, you can use layout parts. To do this, go to Themify Ultra and click on Layout Parts. Create a new layout part and use the front-end builder to create the opt-in form you want. Once you've created your layout part, you can display it anywhere on your website.
Adding Your Opt-In Form to Your Blog Posts
To add your opt-in form to your blog posts, go to Hook Content and click on Add Item. Paste in the layout part shortcode and set where you want it to display. You can also set conditions to only show the opt-in form in specific categories.
Adding Your Opt-In Form to Your Sidebar
