    Hi there,
    i am deeply desperated by the simple task to add a newsletter-subscribe-form to my website.

    What i need is the following:

    • - a form for an emailadress
    • - if sent, check if it's a valid emailadress, send a double-opt-in-email and enter adress to database
    • - if double-opt-in-link is clicked, set the emaildress to validated

    I do have all that programmed and working in php, but in modx i dont get the easiest steps done. (O.K. - i managed to create a simple form with formit. But then i was stuck again.)

    Since this is not really a question but more a call for help, i'd like to ask if
    a) anyone has done this before and would be willing to share his knowledge
    or
    b) if anyone ran over a simple step-by-step tutorial on this subject for complete no-brainers like me. (Working with formit or with forms in modx)

    And please don't refer to rtfm.modx.com, since these "examples" may be for rocketscientists, but sadly not for me.

    Thx, Phil

      I know @mark_hamstra is working on SubscribeMe a plugin to do this kind of stuff but he is not finished with it just yet.

      Maybe if you post your formit call and your code we might be able to provide you with more help.
