You’ll need to delete the Second Choice and Third Choice by clicking on the blue (-minus) icon. And then, change the Label to something like ‘Join Our Newsletter’.

Keep in mind if you want people to be able to subscribe to your email list, you’ll need to connect it to your Constant Contact account.

Click on the link labeled “Click here to register with Constant Contact” so you can connect Constant Contact to WPForms.

After you sign in, you’ll see another screen asking you to allow WPForms to access your Constant Contact account. Click Allow.

You’ll then see your Constant Contact Authorization code. Copy it, add it to the field in your WordPress dashboard, and give your account a nickname.

Click Connect to Constant Contact. You’ll see a Connected symbol if everything was connected the right way.

Once WPForms is done connecting your site to your Constant Contact account, a green success message reading “Connected” will appear.

Step 4: Connect Constant Contact to Your Form

Now, you’ll need to connect Constant Contact to your contact form. To do this, go to your newly created form and click on Marketing » Constant Contact.

Here simply click on the Add New Connection button on the top right corner of the screen to set up the integration with your form.

A popup will appear asking you to nickname your connection. This is for your reference only, so you can call it whatever you want.

Next, choose any Constant Contact account you’ve integrated through your WPForms settings from the Select Account dropdown.

After you choose the account you want to use, click on the Select List dropdown to pick an email list from that account to connect to this form.

You can also add any available subscriber data to your Constant Contact email lists under the List Fields section.

Once you’re done configuring your form’s Constant Contact connection, click Save at the top of the form builder.

Now, you’re ready to add your contact form with a Constant Contact signup checkbox to your WordPress website.
