How to use the scripts?


1) Download and unzip the archive with the scripts to a directory on your server. Contents of the archive:


  • readme_en.txt — instructions;
  • index.html — example of including the scripts into an html page;
  • signup.php — script for processing subscribe requests;
  • unsubscribe.php — script for processing unsubscribe requests;
  • get_addresses.php — internal script.

2) Include a subscription/unsubscribe forms into the page you want, using “index.html” as an example.


For example, to include a subscription form use the code: <?php include_once ‘signup.php’ ?>


3) Both forms can work on the same page.


4) You can give your subscribers a direct link to the form with their email already filled in. For example:


http://yoursite.com/some/path/subscribe/?email=somebody@gmail.com


http://yoursite.com/some/path/subscribe.html?email=somebody@gmail.com


In this case when the user clicks the link their email is already filled in the form(s). The subscriber only needs to click the button.


5) For security purposes you need to modity the file named “get_addresses.php” and set your own mane for the list of subscribers, unsubscribed users and also the password for accessing the files from Atomic Mail Sender.
