Hi,

I just downloaded you evolution theme. I set up my feedburner account and activated email option in feedburner. I also added feedburner link in theme options. Every time I try to add email address to to right email box it say email option not enabled. If I use the rss button and select sign up to get email alerts option it works, so i know the feed and link are OK. You can try if you like and check it out on my site. http://foodluvin.com/.

Hope I am not hitting you with to many questions just wanna get this sucker up!

Peace,

Rob

you need to replace the feedburner code with your id

login to your feedburner account and get the html code for subscribing by email

then go into the header.php file in the evolution theme and look for this code

<form action="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverify" method="post" target="popupwindow" onsubmit="window.open('http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=YOURIDHERE', 'popupwindow', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520');return true">
<input type="text" name="email2" class="field" /><input type="hidden" value="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~e?ffid=YOURIDHERE" name="url"/><input type="hidden" value="" name="title"/><input type="hidden" name="loc" value="en_US"/> <input name="submit" type="submit" class="newsbutton" value="SUBSCRIBE" /></form>

you need to replace the parts which say 'YOURIDHERE' with your own id

let me know if you have any problems :)

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for the help. So I would paste this code in the "YOURIDHERE" spot?

<a href="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=2055339&amp;loc=en_US">Subscribe to foodluvin by Email</a>

OK here is what I added still did not work.

<form action="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverify" method="post" target="popupwindow" onsubmit="window.open('http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=2055339&amp;loc=en_US', 'popupwindow', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520');return true">
<input type="text" name="email2" class="field" /><input type="hidden" value="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~e?ffid=2055339&amp;loc=en_US" name="url"/><input type="hidden" value="" name="title"/><input type="hidden" name="loc" value="en_US"/> <input name="submit" type="submit" class="newsbutton" value="SUBSCRIBE" /></form>

Hi Rob,

I found out what was wrong. The name of the input type should be 'email' and not 'email2'. I apologise for this, I didn't know this mistake was in there.

Here is the correct code

<div class="emailIco">
Subscribe by Email
<form action="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverify" method="post" target="popupwindow" onsubmit="window.open('http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=YOURIDHERE', 'popupwindow', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520');return true">
<input type="text" name="email" class="field" /><input type="hidden" value="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~e?ffid=YOURIDHERE" name="url"/><input type="hidden" value="NAMEOFYOURBLOGHERE" name="title"/><input type="hidden" name="loc" value="en_US"/> <input name="submit" type="submit" class="newsbutton" value="SUBSCRIBE" /></form>
</div>

I've updated the download to reflect this.

If you have any more problems please let me know :):)

your code is all wrong

have a look at it yourself

'http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=2055339&amp;loc=en_US

ie. you have put http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=2055339&amp;loc=en_US20553392 055339 for the feedburner id instead of 2055339
