Squeeze page email confirmation problem

Check your list settings at Aweber as it sounds like you set it up as single opt-in.

My 'require opt in on web forms' is on if that's what you mean?

Is that the 'Success page - confirm success page url''? this field is blank

the confirm email address email is being sent but you shouldn't be able to access the download page until the second email with the link in?

thanks Jim, I sent them an email before there. Thought I'd post on here too in case I was doing something really obvious. I'll see what they say but if anyone else has any ideas please let me know.

It will be in the create a form section, under settings.

It will give you a choice "default" or select the tab and chose custom "thank you".

Put in your thank you page URL. Click Save.

You have it set for signal optin.

Click on the list tab and at the bottom set it for double optin.

aweber are saying it is to do with html coding for that form. Someone else made my squeeze page for me. I'll have to figure out how to amend the html code so it doesn't do this.

This isn't normal is it, for you to be able to access the free download before you confirm your email address? I'll end up with a lot less opt ins this way.

There's the problem. You have to integrate your optin form with the one made for you.

The values are wrong in the code.

Cheers. Getting closer! Just got to figure out how to change it.

Show the optin code that was made for you.

Create the most basic form for the list you want and show that code.

And I will make you the "right" code for you right here.

this is the code now:

<form class="af-form-wrapper" method="POST" action="http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl" accept-charset="UTF-8">
<input type="hidden" value="235576862" name="meta_web_form_id">
<input type="hidden" value="" name="meta_split_id">
<input id="redirect_34d40a679f632c6ba2b6d37b9344778c" type="hidden" value="http://imtips.info/ty.html" name="redirect"> [/COLOR]
<input type="hidden" value="cjwin1" name="listname">
<input type="hidden" value="cwinform" name="meta_adtracking">
<input type="hidden" value="1" name="meta_message">
<input type="hidden" value="email" name="meta_required">
<p align="center">
<input id="email" class="text" type="text" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Enter Your Best Email Here';}" onfocus="this.value=''" name="email" value="Enter Your Best E-Mail" size="20">
<br>
<input class="button1" type="image" name="submit" src="images/submit.png">
</p>
</form>

Do I just need to amend the http://imtips.info/ty so it doesn't redirect to that page?

the web form code as given on aweber is:

I've amended the redirect so it goes to the aweber thank you page. Amazingly, it's worked. Actually surprised myself.

Thank you all very much for your help!

never mind

I've made the changes and tested it and it seems fine.

Thanks again for all your help.
