Connect EmailFig to WordPress

Forms and popups on your site, and a subscribe checkbox on comments and registration.

About WordPress

The EmailFig plugin puts the forms you build in EmailFig on your WordPress site, with a block, a shortcode, or automatically above or below every post. Popups load site-wide. It also adds a subscribe checkbox to the comment and registration forms, and to Contact Form 7 and WPForms, so people can join your list wherever they already type their email.

What you can do

  • Add a signup form with the EmailFig block or a shortcode that works in page builders like Elementor, Divi and Beaver Builder.
  • Show a form above or below every post, and change or turn it off on any single one.
  • Run popups site-wide, with their timing and targeting set in EmailFig.
  • Let people subscribe as they comment or register, tagged by where they came from.

Set it up

  1. Install the EmailFig plugin from the WordPress plugin directory and activate it.
  2. In EmailFig, go to Settings, API keys, create a key, and copy it. It is shown only once. Paste it into the plugin's EmailFig menu and click Connect.
  3. To place a form, publish it in EmailFig and add it with the EmailFig block. For a subscribe checkbox, turn one on under Subscribe checkboxes.

Questions

Will this slow my site down?

No. Your server never calls EmailFig while showing a page. Forms load in the visitor's browser, so a slow or unreachable EmailFig can't slow down or break a page.

Can people confirm by email before they're added?

Yes. Choose a list with double opt-in and every signup from the checkbox gets a confirmation email first.

What happens if EmailFig can't be reached when someone signs up?

The comment or form still goes through. A comment signup is retried automatically, and any signup that doesn't make it is listed on the plugin's Connection tab.
