<p>Update March 2022. Users may need to update their API Secret and Application by visiting Constant Contact, and updating the settings page on this plugin.  See https://v3.developer.constantcontact.com/api_guide/auth_update_apps.html for the release of the Constant Contact Authentication Update.</p>
<p>This is an advanced Constant Contact to Contact Form 7 Connector. This plug-in will allow you to make a connection to Constant Contact’s API using OAUTH protocol.  Retrieve all of your contact lists, and allow users to sign up for a single list, or multiple lists.  This will update existing contacts in your Constant Contact list, or add new if they don’t exist.  In addition to adding or updating E-Mail addresses of contacts in your list, this will also allow you to push basic contact fields, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>First Name</li>
<li>Last Name</li>
<li>Full Address Information including Country</li>
</ul>
<p>Some uses for this plugin would be to add an optional checkbox to a regular contact form where users can subscribe to a single or multiple CTCT lists.  You could also include this with a product registration form, or pretty much make every form on your website a possibility for users to subscribe to your Constant Contact Lists.</p>
<h3>Additional Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Spam Prevention – Submitted e-mail addresses are subjected to a domain verification script, before they’re submitted to Constant Contact.  This helps keep your contact list cleaner.</li>
<li>Failsafe Methods- In the event that Constant Contact’s API is down, the plugin will store failed attempts and retry twice daily until they are successfully added.</li>
<li>Error Reporting – If email addresses are submitted and rejected, an email is sent to the admin. Admin will be informed of users who may have unsubscribed previously and other constant contact error codes.</li>
<li>Authentication Failure Notification – in the event that the authorization to constant contact is lost, the admin will get a notification to re-authorize the application.</li>
<li>Add Opt-In Checkbox to WooCommerce Checkout</li>
<li>Includes prevention of bot submissions</li>
</ul>

Constant Contact Forms


The 2.0.1 version lost all of our lists. They cannot be re-synced. And we cannot create new lists from within WordPress. Without connections to lists, this plugin is fatally broken. Reverting back to v1


Broken List Management

The official Constant Contact plugin adds a contact form to your WordPress site to quickly capture information from visitors.
