How to integrate plimus with aweber

Hi,

Please let me know if you found an answer. I too am in the same situation.

Thank you

Why don't you call their customer support?

I think Plimus doesn't support that type of integration! You should go for FastSpring.

@adnan

Thanks for you reply!!

I contacted Plimus Support and he says:

"We do not provide official support for aweber integration but there are webmasters who did this earlier."

He said i'll have to figure it out myself or search on google

Any ideas??

Hi Giggle,

Leore from Plimus here.

Going to see if I can help. Will look into what is needed to integrate with aweber and update you.

@Plimus Thanks a lot!!!

Will be grateful if you can help

If you get stuck, DLGuard will integrate with both Plimus and Aweber - so if you use DLGuard as your download/customer management system, sell through Plimus, and DLGuard can add the customer to Aweber for you at the point of sale.

The Plimus patch isn't yet officially released, but I do have it available for those interested.

cheers

Hi All,

Below are 2 different ways you can work with AWeber:

1) Using Plimus' custom fields you can add a checkbox to the order page in which customers can opt-in to receive email updates. You can use Plimus' Sales report to see who opted in or out. The sales report contains the customer's email address, which you can then import to AWeber.

Here are the steps to adding Custom Fields to your order pages:
a. Click on the relevant product, then contract you are going to sell.
b. Click on the Custom Fields tab.
c. In the custom fields page, check the Active field for the first custom field - which will be called Custom1.
d. Enter a Title. This will be the text the customer will see next to the checkbox. For example, you could enter, "Yes, I would like to receive product updates."
e. Under Type, choose Checkbox.
f. Then Submit. You can click on the Test BuyNow Flow button to view the updated order page.

To view the report on who opted in or out:
a. Click on Reports.
b. Click on Sales.
c. Run the Sales report and export it to Excel.
d. Once the report is in Excel, you'll see several columns have been added to the report. One of the columns will be called Custom1.
e. Under Custom1, you should see Y for people who opted-in and N for those who opted-out.

2) You can also integrate with Plimus using an opt-in form. When a user completes a purchase you can redirect him to this form, instead of the thank you page. Once you have the URL of the form, follow these steps in the Plimus platform:
a. Click on the relevant product, then the contract.
b. Click on BuyNow Template.
c. Choose to Customize Style & Settings.
d. Scroll to After Purchase Settings.
e. In the Return to URL section, check the Auto redirect radio button.
f. Then simply enter the form URL in the URL field.
g. Submit to save your settings. You can then click on the Test BuyNow Flow button to test the flow.
