To add your Constant Contact email newsletter subscription to your FASO site rather than use FASO's Artful Mail newsletter software, you have to do the following.
NOTE: If you need to authenticate your domain, the instructions appear below ***
Obtain Installation Code from Constant Contact
You need to follow the next steps in order to get the code needed to insert the signup form into your website.
- Create an inline form
- Activate the form
- Get the universal code
- From the Sign-Up Forms page in Constant Contact:
- Click "Universal Code".
- Copy the code and paste it in the Constant Contact Integration page of your FASO site. (see steps below)
- Get form inline code
- From the Sign-Up Forms page in Constant Contact:

Install Code on your FASO site
- From your FASO account control panel

See it in action
Once you have followed the steps, the system will automatically detect that you have introduced the code and the following will happen in your site.
The newsletter signup widget that automatically appears in your site (usually at the bottom of the page) will change to a button. When your site visitors click that button, they will be taken to the "email newsletter signup" page where they will be able to see your custom Constant Contact form.
Additionally you can add a new item to your menu bar to take your visitors to that page directly from your menu bar. For more information on how to do that you can check Manage Your Site Menu / Edit Navigation Bar
