Feedburner Email Subscription Fix
Saturday, May 02, 2009 Posted by Michael
Using trial & error, and the invaluable information in the Feedburner Email Subscription Request Problem blog post by Danny Ng, I came up with a fix specifically for the Revolution Lifestyle theme.
Go to Layout > Page Element, add a HTML/Javascript widget to SIDEBARTOP section. Add this code,
<div class="newsletter">
<h2>eNews & Updates</h2>
<p>Sign up to receive breaking news <br/> as well as receive other site updates!</p>
<form id="subscribe" action="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify" target="popupwindow" method="post" onsubmit="window.open('http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=YOURFEEDBURNERID', 'popupwindow', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520');return true">
<input id="subbox" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Enter your email address...') {this.value = '';}" value="Enter your email address..." name="email" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Enter your email address...';}" type="text"/>
<input value="YOURFEEDBURNERID" name="uri" type="hidden"/>
<input value="eNews Subscribe" name="title" type="hidden"/>
<input id="subbutton" value="GO" type="submit"/>
</form>
</div>
Change YOURFEEDBURNERID with your own Feedburner ID, located at the end of your feed address: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/YOURFEEDBURNERID
For example, my feed address is http://feeds2.feedburner.com/MichaelNye, so my Feedburner ID is MichaelNye
