Apologies to those who have been trying to subscribe my blog through the email Subscribe button above! I made a typo on the form codes and haven’t realized it up till now (a fellow member from Entrecard told me about it, thanks again). It’s been fixed and you can now subscribe with your email address!
If you don’t know yet, you can get my latest posts delivered to your inbox just by subscribing through the form above. Just enter your email address, and every time I post a new article, it will be delivered to your inbox automatically.
If you are a blogger who’s using the same theme and would like to know how to modify the code for the email subscribe above, please read on.
This guide is assuming that you are using the WP Premium theme and the Feedburner service.
What you need to do:
Go to your Feedburner dashboard. On your browser’s URL, make note of the numbers next to the “id”. This is your blog’s feed id. (The URL should be something like: http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/dashboard?id=YOUR_ID)
Now, edit the header.php file, try to find (use CTRL-F on your browser) these lines:
<div class="subscribeform">
<p>Subscribe via Email</p>
Modify the line to:
<div class="subscribeform">
<p>Subscribe via Email</p>
<form action="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=YOUR_ID" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="loc" value="en_US" />
<input type="hidden" value="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~e?ffid=YOUR_ID" name="url" />
<input type="hidden" value="YOUR_SITE/BLOG_TITLE" name="title" />
<input type="text" name="email" value="" class="input" />
<input type="submit" class="sbutton" value="Subscribe" />
</form>
</div>
That’s it! Please let me know whether it works for you and don’t be shy to ask if you are still stuck and can’t make it work.
