Campaign Monitor Drupal module

Posted by Mathew Patterson on May 5, 2008

A completely open source content management platform, Drupal is a popular choice for large scale, flexible websites.

A key feature of Drupal is the ability to add on modules, plug in code that extends the core functionality to do any number of different things. Sydney based Campaign Monitor user Stephanie Sherriff has written a cool Drupal module to integrate Campaign Monitor newsletter signups with your Drupal website.

Stephanie describes it in this way:

a fairly simple module that just adds the ability to subscribe and unsubscribe from a newsletter using the API. It also creates a page that displays prior campaigns

Here is how the module's configuration page looks in Drupal:

If your site visitors are logged in, then the form will even be pre-filled for them using the details from their user account on your website. This could be an excellent way to grow your list, and also something to implement on websites you are building for your clients.

Stephanie is still planning some further improvements to the module, and we look forward to seeing those too.

Visit the Campaign Monitor Drupal Module page to find out more, and to download it.
