Email capture / Quick registration widget
Example

This is new in b2evolution v6.

When placed in the sidebar or in the main area, this widget will display a form with a configurable number of fields.

At a minimum the form will have:

  • A field named "Your email:" requiring an email address.
  • A submit button with configurable text. Default: "Sign up!"

When submitting the form, if there is no error, a user account will be created with a random password.

When the user is already logged in, this widget will display nothing.

The widget has the following params:

  • Block title - Default: "Get our newsletter!"
  • Intro text (textarea - empty by default)
  • Ask for first name: o No o Optional o Required (radio default no)
  • Ask for last name: o No o Optional o Required (radio default no)
  • Source code: default "email capture form" (this will be saved in the source field of the user account)
  • Auto subscribe: 2 checkboxes
    • [] check to auto subscribe new user to current collection posts
    • [] check to auto subscribe new user to current collection comments

When submitting, if there are no errors, a user account will be created with the information provided and in addition:

  • A random password of 10 chars will be generated.
  • A username will be generated by taking out the abc.def part of an email like abc.def@provider.com (the valid chars depend on the setting "/admin.php?ctrl=registration", block "Security options", setting "Require strict logins" )
