Hey all, I'm looking for a theme just like the one below. I have an idea for a niche site where users can post content to the site. The theme below does that, but there's no ability to capture e-mail address when they submit content. The theme below is perfect for my niche site, but it lacks the MAJOR ability to gather e-mails. If anyone knows a theme that can do what e-list does I'm all ears (or eyes in this case).

    If this is the exact theme you want then I don't understand why you don't just buy it. It's not particularly expensive for a paid theme (only $39) and does exactly what you need. If I were you then I would just purchase it.

      Sorry I should learn to read more carefully, I just noticed you said it doesn't have the feature you need!

    As this is a wordpress theme, why don't you purchase the theme (as you particularly like it) and just add the WP Email Capture plugin? Would that not work?

      Crimson,

      Thanks for the reply I did purchase the theme, but it's not working like I"d hoped. There's a page specifically used for submitting listings, but not sure if it will work with the plugin you mentioned. I'll go check it out now, thanks.

          How did you implement the plugin out of curiosity?

            I was looking something that goes on the existing "submit" page the theme uses. I found a work around. Using contact form 7, the lister puts their e-mail address, submits, then submits their listing. It's all on one page so it shouldn't be too bad. Here's the page I'm referring to

            Sample Page | My Blog

            Once the contact info is put in and submitted, it doesn't take you away from the page, which is good. on the submit stuff below (where it says address, etc) I wanted an option for e-mail, oh well.

            As far as WP capture, I still need to fiddle with it. I would love for it to integrate with contact form 7..when user inputs the e-mail on the page the address goes right on the list. I still have much to mess around with.

              Crimson,

              I learned how to make the plugin work--wasn't implementing the widget This might be much better for me than the contact form as the e-mails can be exported to aweber and I can see a list vs. contact form just sending me e-mails. I think it may be a keeper, thanks!
