Hi,
What AC 7 functionality/control library can I use to populate the email list table w/o the need of creating a new control lib? We just want the customer to enter their email address and then we'll store it in the database .

Thanks,
Tomas

Hello,

This one:

Code: Select all

SubscribeToEmailList 
Summary:Displays a simple email list signup form. This form can be added to side bars.

Usage: [[ConLib:SubscribeToEmailList Caption="Subscribe To Email List" EmailListId="0"]]

Properties:
Caption
Possible value can be any string. Title of the control.
EmailListId
Possible value can be any integer. This is the ID of the Email List to be subscribed to. If no email list is specified the store's default email list is used.

Hi Mike,

I am running build 8272 which I upgraded from build 7973. I cannot find the SubscribeToEmailList control in the ConLib directory that you referenced. Is it possibly in a later build?

Hello Neal,

This is in the 8272 build I downloaded. Check the zip file and let me know what you find.

I am still not finding in the the ac7_b8272.zip file that I downloaded. I even logged into the orders page and downloaded it again, but hte file is not in the ConLib folder or any other folder of the zip file.

Hi Mike,
Same here, I can't find the SubscribeToEmailList library.

Thanks,

Looking in the folder ConLib, I have a SubscribetoEmailList.ascx, but not a
SubscribetoEmailList.ascx.cs like the other files there have.
Maybe that is the problem.

There is no code-behind file for that control. It's got the script inside it.

It's a recent addition. Maybe it's not in that beta 2 version.

I have it in my ConLib directory. I have RC1.

Maybe that is the problem.

In ASP.NET 2 we can have code behind either in a separate file or embedded in same aspx (or ascx) file. We have chosen to have all the controls in ConLib to have separate code behind file. The above file is an anomaly... but its not a bug. The code behind still exists but inside the same file.

We will have the code behind moved in a separate file in next update.

Hi Guys,
Where can i download the patch that contains this file ?

Thanks,

Hi Mike,

As I mentioned before, I downloaded the ac7_b8272.zip file from the orders page and it clearly does not contain this file. I was under the impression that build 8272 was RC1. When I look in the ConLib folder of the ZIP file, I cannot find the SubscribeToEmailList.ascx file. The closest file name is SubscriptionPage.ascx.

What is the next step? I would like to finish up the site and this is the last remaining open issue.

Is there any chance you can post the file or e-mail it to me?

Neal,

The download file ac_b8272.zip is a fresh-install zip of AC7. If the file isn't contained there, that's an oversight on Able's part.

You are correct that Build 8272 is RC1.

It's in the ac_upgrade_b8272.zip file...just checked mine.

Download the upgrade flavor of the zip file and you'll find the file there. I can email you mine if you need it in a hurry. Just pm me with your email address.
