Adding newsletter to HTML footer

[CrossY]

Hi there,

 

I'm trying to add the blocknewsletter to my footer. I'm using a module that allows me to use simple HTML for my footer, so i've tried adding the following code to the module:

<!-- Block Newsletter module-->
<div id="newsletter_block_left" class="block">
<h4 class="title_block">{l s='Newsletter' mod='blocknewsletter'}</h4>
<div class="block_content">{if isset($msg) && $msg}
<p class="{if $nw_error}warning_inline{else}success_inline{/if}">{$msg}</p>
{/if}<form action="{$link->getPageLink('index')}" method="post">
<p>{* @todo use jquery (focusin, focusout) instead of onblur and onfocus *} <input class="inputNew" onfocus="javascript:if(this.value=='{l s='Your email address' mod='blocknewsletter' js=1}')this.value='';" onblur="javascript:if(this.value=='')this.value='{l s='Your email address' mod='blocknewsletter' js=1}';" type="text" name="email" value="{if isset($value) && $value}{$value}{else}{l s='Your email address' mod='blocknewsletter'}{/if}" size="18" /> <!--<select name="action">
					<option value="0"{if isset($action) && $action == 0} selected="selected"{/if}>{l s='Subscribe' mod='blocknewsletter'}</option>
					<option value="1"{if isset($action) && $action == 1} selected="selected"{/if}>{l s='Unsubscribe' mod='blocknewsletter'}</option>
				</select>--> <input class="button_mini" type="submit" name="submitNewsletter" value="ok" /> <input type="hidden" name="action" value="0" /></p>
</form></div>
</div>
<!-- /Block Newsletter module-->

Of course that didnt work..

 

 

Perhaps with embedding? Or CSS styling? Or in the files of the footer module (can't trace where it stores the HTML codes which are entered from the BO)..?

 

Would appreciate any help!

 

Regards,

Dave

why it doesn't work? you've got some messages ? errors? can you shed some light on it?

why not to replace default newsletter block to footer?

It looks like this (attachment) when I add the code to the module.

 

I reckon it doesn't handle PHP or Smarty coding very well? I'm not a coder so I'm not sure..

[vekia]

it looks a bit weirdy, by default it should work well

 

you need to remove newsletter block from left column, after that it should appear well.

 

have you tried to recompile theme?
