The add-on is designed to be lightweight and “no-code,” focusing on field mapping and automation.
Field Mapping: Connect Forminator fields (Name, Email, Phone, etc.) directly to your Newsletter subscriber profiles and custom fields.
List Segmentation: Automatically assign subscribers to specific mailing lists based on the form they filled out.
Double Opt-In Support: Fully compatible with GDPR-friendly double opt-in processes managed by The Newsletter Plugin.
Conditional Logic: While Forminator handles the front-end logic, the add-on ensures data is only sent to your mailing list if specific user conditions are met (e.g., a “Subscribe me” checkbox is ticked).
Multilanguage Support: Compatible with WPML and Polylang to ensure subscribers are tagged with their preferred language.
Custom Welcome Emails: Trigger unique welcome sequences through Newsletter’s automation engine immediately after a Forminator submission.
To use this integration effectively, your environment should meet these standards:
Form Elements: Every Forminator form linked to the newsletter must contain at least an Email field.
Consent (Optional): It is recommended to add a Checkbox field in Forminator for GDPR compliance to act as the “Acceptance” trigger for the newsletter.
Installation:
Download the add-on from the official The Newsletter Plugin site.
Navigate to Newsletter > Add-ons > Forminator in your WordPress dashboard to begin mapping your forms.
Spam Protection: Inherits Forminator’s security features, including Google reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, and Cloudflare Turnstile.
Database Impact: Minimal. The add-on acts primarily as a data relay and does not create large additional tables; it uses the existing structures of the two parent plugins.
