[[email protected]Participant]

Hey guys!

I’m not very code savy, could you help me! Just want to add a redirect after someone submits their email!

We haven’t tried this, because the simple subscribe works such that it just slides down and shows a success message on subscribe, but in js folder of the plugin there is a ab-simple-subscribe.js file. There after line 22 try adding

complete: function(xmlHttp) {
	if (xmlHttp.code != 200) {
	  top.location.href = '/some/other/page';
	}
}

where /some/other/page is your redirect page.

Thanks guys! I tried it, placed it at line 23 but it didn’t work, it just reloads the page with a /# after the URL instead of the redirect page. Any thoughts? I tried using a url as well as just the page name alone.

I really really appreciate the help, I love everything else about this plugin, but client is not budging on wanting a redirect>

Try putting the complete URL (with http) and see if it works.

So I tried the full url, it just reloads the current page but with a “/#” after the domain.

Yeah, we are not sure if this would work because it’s not how the plugin was designed.

Try with

complete: function(xmlHttp) {
	if (xmlHttp.code != 200) {
	  window.location.href = "/path/to/thankyoupage";
	}
}

Again, not sure if this will work because all the solutions for redirect happen on success, and our plugin will store the email to the database on success. You could also try with:

success: function(msg, response){
    if(msg === "OK"){
        $form.animate({ height: '0px' }, 800, function() {
            $form.hide();
        });
        $wrapper.find('.ABss_success_message').delay(400).html(ABss_custom.success).slideDown(600);
        if (response.redirect) {
	        window.location.href = response.redirect;
	    }
    }
    else {
        $wrapper.find('.ABss_subscriber_email').addClass('ABss_field_error').attr("placeholder", ABss_custom.error).val('').focus();
    }
}

This is a customization of the plugin, so, again, we cannot guarantee this will work.

Thanks for the help! I really appreciate it, first one didn’t work, trying the second, where would I put the URL for the redirect in the second one?

This is a JSON object, you’d need to have access to the server for it to work.

AJAX redirect is a tricky thing because of how the server handles the request.

damn, any recommendation or other plugins you know of that would work?

No, no idea.

If you can find someone with a bit more knowledge on the subject, they could customize the plugin to your liking.
