Get your potential subscribers directly to the flipbook subscriber signup page with an absolute link.

Make sure you have subscription enabled on the title AND "Allow new subscribers to signup online from the login screen" option checked (will not work if bypass authentication option is checked...see NOTE at bottom of article)

Then, all you need to do is add the following to the end of your issue or title link URL

  • ?showSubForm=true

Examples(substitute your issue or title number for xxxxx):

 

This can save a step to get new subscribers added to your readership!

NOTE:  This query will only work when usually a login gate REQUIRING the user to login first is displayed.  If you are using bypass authentication on your title and want the signup form to show on load, you will need to append ?popup=subscribe to your links.  See this article for more detail on that method
