WordPress Integration With ReachMail


To add a ReachMail Sign-Up form to your WordPress-powered website, you'll begin by creating a form in your ReachMail account.

  1. Create the Form in ReachMail
    • Log in to your ReachMail account and navigate to Tools > Form Wizard & Confirmation Email.
    • Click Add Form to begin the creation process.
    • Select the List you want the form to populate, assign a Form Name, and choose an Opt-In Type:
      • Confirmed Opt-In: Sends a confirmation email to the submitter, who must approve.
      • Unconfirmed Opt-In: Directly adds the submitter to the list.
  2. Access the Form Contents
    • After creating the form, you’ll be brought to the Form Contents page.
    • Locate the WordPress section, which provides the Form ID for use with the plugin.
  3. Download the WordPress Plugin
    • Download the ReachMail plugin from the Form Contents page or from the WordPress directory: ReachMail Subscription Forms.
    • The plugin downloads as a .zip file, which you can upload to your WordPress site via the Plugins section.
  4. Generate an API Token
    • Go to Accounts > Tokens in your ReachMail account and click Generate.
    • Copy the token to a safe place, as you’ll need it for the plugin setup.
  5. Install and Activate the Plugin in WordPress
    • Upload and activate the plugin via the Plugins menu in WordPress.
    • Navigate to Appearance > Widgets and drag the ReachMail Subscription Form widget to your desired sidebar.
  6. Configure the Plugin
    • Enter the API Token you generated earlier.
    • Input the Form ID you want to display on your site.
    • Add a Title for the form, then click Save.
  7. Using the Form in Shortcodes
    • To display your form in areas supporting shortcodes, use:

      [reachmail_subscriptionform]

Note: The ReachMail WordPress plugin requires the installed version of WordPress and will not work with the hosted version.
