Shortcode and Widget

Home > Settings > Shortcode and Widget

To add the registration form to your site pages, you can use the shortcode and/or widget.
Widget and shortcode have two different forms that must be configured in the plugin’s dedicated tabs (Shortcode and Widget).

To insert the Mailchimp registration form through shortcode, add [yith_wcmc_subscription_form] to the site page.

The configuration options concerning the forms associated to the widget and shortcode are the same as the checkout registration form. Therefore we suggest you follow the instructions already analyzed on this page.

Interest groups

An essential note about the interest groups associated to the list (when available).
The plugin gives you the possibility to choose an action when the users register through the widget or shortcode:

  • if the user makes a request for registration, they can be automatically inserted in one or more interest groups
  • the user can choose the interest group to which they want to register

Registration form fields

By default, the registration form has only the email field.
However, it is possible to add an unlimited number of fields. You can insert all the fields you have configured in the “List fields and *|MERGE|* tags” MailChimp section.
