DRUPAL USERS |
| 47 |
|
------------ |
| 48 |
|
Enabling the phpList block provides a link to logged-in users which takes them directly to the "My Newsletters" tab of "My Account". From here, they can (un)subscribe to all |
| 49 |
|
available newsletters. The URL http://my_site/newsletters takes non-logged-in users to the login page, then redirects to "My Newsletters" after successful login - logged-in users |
| 50 |
|
get taken there directly. |

ANONYMOUS USERS |
| 54 |
|
--------------- |
| 55 |
|
As of 1.12.2.12, there are more features for handling anonymous users. |
| 56 |
|
|
| 57 |
|
1. Subscribing |
| 58 |
|
This is already handled by the anonymous sign-up block |
| 59 |
|
|
| 60 |
|
2. Confirming |
| 61 |
|
PHPlist is usually configured to send out an email requesting that the user clicks a link to confirm their subscription (does NOT apply to Druapl |
| 62 |
|
account holders as Drupal has handled that side of things). The usrl 'newsletters/confirm' allows your anonymous user to activate their |
| 63 |
|
subscriptions whilst staying within your Drupal environment. The PHPlist uniqueID needs to be in the URL for this to function (usually added by |
| 64 |
|
default by PHPlist). |
| 65 |
|
|
| 66 |
|
2. Unsubscribing |
| 67 |
|
A new url '/newsletters/unsubscribe' is provided. If the PHPlist uniqueID is provided as a GET parameter (usually is in links generated by PHPlist), |
| 68 |
|
the email address field will be automatically populated. |
| 69 |
|
|
| 70 |
|
If logged-in Drupal users attempts to access either the 'confirm' or 'unsubscribe' URLs, they get redirected to My Newsletters. |

3. When I try to use the anonymous sign-up block, I get the "Oops" message every time |
| 88 |
|
|
| 89 |
|
There are a number of things to check here: |
| 90 |
|
- The URL to PHPlist (including the trailing slash) |
| 91 |
|
- Your PHP installation has network access (through firewalls etc.) to the PHPlist server on port 80 |
| 92 |
|
- You are not using mandatory attributes within PHPlist |
