HTML form within the home page action bar

[Erik Smelser]

Good morning:

I have a (!#@%) client who would like an email subscription form where the action bar is within this theme. Linking text is not good enough.

This would require me being able to post a MailChimp form within the Call to Action Bar text field on the Theme Options page.

So, I thought before I made surgical changes to the home page template, I'[d reach out to see if there might be some code I could paste into the Custom CSS field that would allow me to accomplish this.

Thank you.

Unfortunately that will take some code changes beyond just CSS. Most likely you’ll want to replace this line:

<h2><a href="<?php echo of_get_option('action_url'); ?>"><?php echo of_get_option('action_text'); ?></a></h2>

with the MailChimp sign up form that you’re planning on using. That should get the form on the front page. Then you’ll just need to style it to match.

Wish I had better news for you,
Bill
