How do I change the thank you page for my sign up form?

When a person subscribes to your list using a form on your website, they're re-directed to a page meant to encourage them to confirm their subscription (if the confirmation message is on) or notify them that their subscription is complete (if the confirmation message is off).

You may use a customized version of the Thank You Page hosted at AWeber, or create your own page hosted on your own website.

    Choose the thank you page to use

    Basic Version

    Basic thank you page

    Custom Page

    This version is hosted on your website. When the subscriber submits their email and any other information successfully, they are directed to the URL you enter after selecting this option.

    Stay on Current Page

    This option is not like the others, in that subscribers are not sent to a different page. Instead, once they successfully submit their email and any other information, they are sent back to the same page that they had just filled out the form on.

    Note: You can click on the "Preview" button in order to see a live preview of any of the options.

  5. Select the type of Thank You Page you wish to use. If you choose the Custom Page option, you will also need to enter the URL of the page you'd like to send subscribers to.

  6. Save your sign up form. If you haven't yet published it to your website, or if you've used the Raw HTML Version of the form, you will also need to add the code to your site.

    That's it! Now, you've successfully changed your thank you page for your sign up form. Subscribers will be directed to the page you've indicated based on your sign up form's settings.

 

Why is my sign up form not working?

Please be aware that some subscribers may report encountering the error message "Email Address is Not Valid" despite entering a valid email address.

This issue may occur when sharing your sign up form on social media platforms (like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, etc.), as each of these platforms utilizes its own in-app browser. Due to the limitations of these in-app browsers, enabling the "Open this in a new window" option will cause the sign up form to fail as the form action cannot be executed. This issue not only prevents subscriber data from being transmitted to AWeber but also generates an error message.

To resolve this issue, we recommend disabling the "Open this in a new window" option within your Sign Up Form settings. Alternatively, you can advise your subscribers to open the link using their mobile browser.
