The VerticalResponse module allows users to sign-up or subscribe to a VerticalResponse mailing list from a drupal node. The module also allows administrators to generate VerticalResponse e-mail newsletter campaigns using Drupal and the Basic E-news module.

Features

• Administrators can associate any single node with any number of VerticalResponse mailing lists.
• The VerticalResponse module now includes a "campaign manager," which allows administrators to create and launch VerticalResponse e-mail campaigns from within Drupal.
• Administrators can allow users to subscribe to mailing lists during the registration process.
• Allows admins to map user properties to merge fields using a view.
• Administrators can segment lists in Drupal.

Getting Started

   • If you do not already have a VerticalResponse account, you can sign up for an API-enabled account here.

3. Set the number of fields to allow users to sign up for more than one list at a time.
4. Create a node of the selected content type, and select which list/lists you would like to enable for signup.
