Jesus! How this hasn't been done before? It's cool and kinda makes you want to subscribe even if you don't, just to slide. But I have a question: How do you collect a person's email actually?

@lussvontrier after you slide, an email field appears. Then the next time you see this widget on a website, no no longer need to enter your email to subscribe

@andrei_nedelcu Thanks for the info! I think it'd be nice to add this information to your landing page, at first glance I was thinking "that doesn't change anything if they have to input their email" 🤔

Hi @andyreed ! I love it. Just got all set up for my site. I think I'm all set to go. I have a few questions though. It says it's connected to ConvertKit, but I'm unsure what Slide to Subscribe does with the new subscriber. How do they get proper tags, and set up with the right sequence, etc.? Also, I think I just learned that one of the key intentions of Slide to Subscribe is that the subscribers can access the newsletters in the Slide to Subscribe app - all in one place. Right? So, part of your intention is to provide convenience to subscribers. And, to be clear, it's fully expected that they will get our newsletters in their email inbox too, right? Lastly, I saw a couple places where you state that people can see a sample of a newsletter. How do they do that? Where would I set that up? Nice job! Thank you! This has such big promise!

@steve_mattus if you connected it to Convertkit, then all it does is add new subscribers to your Convertkit account. Slide to Subscribe gives you names and email addresses of subscribers. It doesn't send emails, that part is up to you. The preview works for the embedded widget. The Slide to Subscribe bot is subscribed to your newsletter, so when you send it, it will capture a screenshot and display it in your widget

@andrei_nedelcu Thank you. I guess that's where my question comes in... the Slidetosubscribe bot is not subscribed to my list in ConvertKit. Something didn't work it seems. Is there a way to re-do it?

@steve_mattus is the bot subscribed to you on Slide to Subscribe? Anyway, here's the process to get the preview to show up: 1. Make sure the email from which you are sending the newsletter is the same as your Slide to Subscribe account email - if it's different, you will need to verify that email on your newsletter settings page 2. Send the newsletter to the Slide to Subscribe bot and the preview should appear in about a minute Let me know how it goes :)

@steve_mattus just realized that what's happening in your case makes sense, since the Slide to Subscribe bot subscribed to you when you registered, therefore before you connected Convertkit. I have a planned feature that does "retroactive sync", so it will import the subscribers that you had before connecting an Email service provider. Anyway, I guess the easiest thing for you would be to just email the bot directly.

@andrei_nedelcu - Thanks! Someone else signed up, tonight, and they didn't get added to ConvertKit either. I also sent a test through, and nothing. So, I'm going to take it off my site at least in case we get it to work. It's a great idea if it can get the subscribers to the email service. Eeeek! Thanks for the help. I had high hopes!

I really like this. I am thinking to use it on https://www.colorsandfonts.com. I am using Mailchimp. What's the difficulty of changing to this from mailchimps original? Thank you. It looks awesome.

@michael_andreuzza no difficulty at all and you don't need to change your current setup. All you need to do is click a button to connect Slide to Subscribe to Mailchimp and it will take care syncing subscribers

@andrei_nedelcu Already been playing with it. Is there anyways to style the button's colour?

@michael_andreuzza color customization is something I considered early on and ultimately decided against it, because I think it's important that the widget looks exactly the same everywhere. When it doesn't exactly match your website's color scheme I recommend using a wrapper element of a different color. Looking at your website, I would say it actually matches the widget style pretty well (both the embeddable form and the floating bar).

@andrei_nedelcu Hey, It does match now, but I am redesigning the whole site and with the actual and future dark mode is not going to be seen the black button, that's my concern. A couple of questions, i am installing it, and because my local domain or the test domain with netlify is not allowed is not showing, that's fine because I can enable them to be shown if i allow another url, but even doing this is not being shown. When I am gathering subscribers through sTs, are this ones updating on mailchimp list too? Thank you so much Andrei

@michael_andreuzza there's a dark mode that you can use. Instructions on slidetosubscribe.com/developers Make sure the allowed domain includes the full protocol and scheme. Example: https://mywebsite.com or https://www.mywebsite.com If you connected Mailchimp then yes, they will be updating there

There's the privacy concern. Where is the email being kept? If I get it right, it remembers my email across sites, so only have to enter it the first time I "slide to subscribe", right?

@utopicabsurd the email is encrypted so it can't be sniffed, and we only serve numeric user ids. We have a Do Not Track policy and very restrictive privacy terms. And we do not share the data with any third parties. We'll monetize through a Pro version. You can read more about it here: https://slidetosubscribe.com/pri...

"Fantastic Andrei. This is a great tool, well-designed, with plenty of useful benefits and 100% free. What could I ask for more? I particularly appreciate: - the simplicity and ease of use - the UI design - the fact that can be embedded practically anywhere (including Medium!) - the customizable subscription page you generate - the slider to subscribe without having to write my email - cookie absence - newsletter preview - the three alternative formats - integration with main newsletter distribution apps I think that if we can get this tool to be adopted in sufficiently large numbers, we have a winner. Here is my draft subscription page: http://subscribe.to/robingood I would highly recommend this tool. ...and given that it can only get better if it is adopted by more people, I suggest that those find it useful do spread the word about its benefits. Bravo Andrei! *I have posted a small personal review of your tool which summarizes its key features and characteristics on one page: http://tools.robingood.com/34852..."
