Form "action"

    I have signed a service in Italy dedicated email marketing and newsletter sending the service is among the best, but has not made a plugin for WordPress.
    We recognize users many features including one to customize the form and enter the same code with html pages directly concerned. But I don't like it.
    I like to create a form and, more importantly, I like to to set command “action” and the "list" in order to point the server of my service.

  2. It is possible to point Gravity Forms to do a different form action using a hook, but we don't recommend it as it is problematic and you lose form validation capabilities. Gravity Forms can only implement validation if the form submits to it's own handler, if you tell it to submit to another form handler then you lose advanced features of Gravity Forms such as validation.

    Thank you.
    I can choose the items of the form that I want. The server manager of my newsletter asking for is the indication and the following :

    "<form action="http://...... /subscribe.aspx">
    <input name="list" value="13" type="hidden">
    <label id="labelCampo1">Nome</label>
    <input id="campo1" name="campo1" value="" maxlength="100" type="text" >
    ........"
    Can you explain where I put these values to run the fom?
    Thanks a lot

  4. It doesn't sound like these are going to be compatible. You can't add HTML to your forms as Gravity Forms are dynamic and need to be output by the plugin. I'm not sure how you can get this to work the way you want it to.

    You could always export your form data and then import it into your newsletter provider.

    Or you could use MailChimp, Campaign Monitor or Constant Contact and there are add-ons available that integrate with these providers.
