How to Send a Confirmation Email?

    Hello,

    I am using Mailing List Manager to collect emails.

    I have successfully installed the script but when I wanted
    to write the confirmation email under "Confirmation Mailings"
    I simply typed a message and then tested it.

    I realized that only the text I wrote appears in the email
    but not the confirmation link. Am I doing something wrong or
    is this feature not included in the software?

    Thanks

    yes this feature might not be in the script.

    You will need to check the features of script on the website if it has .

    Otherwise in the options or configuration look for something "Confirmation link"

    But if it is still not you can ask the company who made script to add feature for you might be they have some update .

    If thats not the case you can hire a php programmer like "me" to add this feature for you,for which you have to pay me certainly.

    Thanks


    Regards

    Alex

    In many scripts of this ilk you have to put a special text in the body of the email you type where you want the link to appear (eg ##Link##) and the system will sub it out at run time. You would need to check the documentation for the script to see if this is the case and if it is, what the placeholder is

    thanks so far,

    I have another problem.

    Whenever someone puts in his name and email address
    and then presses the submit button he first is redirected
    to another page where he has to push this submit button
    again.

    But I don't want this to happen that way. I just want
    immediately after pressing submit to save the info without
    being redirected to another page.

    Maybe you can help me out?
    Btw, here is the link to my site in case you want to
    see it yourself:

    Thanks

    I am redirected to a page that has no forms...it is a sales related website...
    Can you post again the page please ?
    Are you interested in sending emails in mass ? for email marketing services ?
    I failed to understand your problem...
