0006450: Tag for direct link to subscripion page for Forward

Description

Hello - I am currently working on adding forward event data to the stats page.

I have also noticed that when you forward an email you can add a [SUBSCRIBE] tag to allow the person who was forwarded the email to subscribe.

However it take them to the overall subscription page which lists all subscription pages not the subscription page that focuses on the email forwarded - does this make sense?

If it does is there any reason why a direct link was not provided and instead defaults to the overall subscription web page. I for example have 5 subscription web pages so when a user clicks on the subscribe link in the forward email they have no idea what mailing list to subscribe to.

Cheers

marc

(0013879) hola (reporter) 23-05-06 01:02	Good stuff - how much would be required to add a new tag that would allow for this functonality? I am not sure what id would be required to make sure the user lands on the correct subscription web page. For example a mailing list can be associated to more than one subscription form. Have you somehow recorded the subscription page associated with a mailing list that is currently being processed my the processqueue.php? So the parameters that would be attached to the subscribe url within the forward email would contain the subscription form id and the user id of the person that forward the email. This means we could learn who forwarded the email, to whom and if anyone joined the mailing list via the forward process since the forward userid would be there on the subscription form. This is feasaible? If so I could add it to my forward stats project. Basically I see I would need to do the following: 1) Add support for a new TAG maybe [FORWARDRECORD] 2) Add the following parameters to the subscribe url within the forward email - subscription web page id, user id who forwarded the email 3) Ability to record in a users record that an existing subscriber forward that person the email associated with the mailing list.
