I need some way to get Member id and add it to the Gourp_Member table when people register for the newsletter.
*update 2*
When I add a member manually from the newsletter tab in the admin panel, the row is added to the member table, in the same format...
*update*
I figured out that it is writing to the "Member" table in the database. Is there a way for the news letter to automatically add members from the Member list?
------------------
I followed the guide here:
http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=recipes:simplesignupform
(I see the note saying its outdated.)
What could be done to make this work? The only problem I have is that it isn't adding anything to the database.
here is what I have:
SignupForm.php
<?php
class SignupForm extends Form {
function signup($data,$form) {
// Create a new member using the data from the form
// TODO: needs validation - all fields filled out, email doesn't exist already etc
$member = new Member($data);
$member->write();
// Add the new member to the 'newslettersubscribe' group
$groups = $member->Groups();
$groups->setByCheckboxes(array("newslettersubscribe"), $data);
// Write the Member table row
$member->write();
Director::redirect('/sign-up-complete/');
}
}
?>
SignupPage.php
<?php
class SignupPage extends Page {
}
class SignupPage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
function AfterContent() {
// This is a dirty hack, suggestions?
// It returns early if we're on the thanks page - we don't want the form on that page
if($this->urlParams[Action] == 'thanks') return;
return new SignupForm($this, "AfterContent",
new FieldSet(
new TextField("FirstName", "First Name:"),
new TextField("Surname", "Surname:"),
new TextField("Email", "Email:")
),
new FieldSet(
new FormAction("signup", "Subscribe")
),
new RequiredFields(
"FirstName",
"Surname",
"Email"
));
}
}
?>
I have a newsletter named newslettersubscribe. I made it from the newsletter tab of the admin panel.
I know there is a "subscribe form" page type, but I don't want the users to need to use a checkbox for selecting the news group.
Is there a way to set a "default" news group maybe?
