How can I make a direct link to email signup with Minimal theme?

I would like to have a link to share on my socials that takes the customers directly to an email signup form for newsletters.

I created a newsletter page on my main menu but there is no way to add the “newsletter” sign up section to it.

Hi there, creating a vanity URL to get them to the page is pretty easy; just do that in Navigation / URL Redirects / add URL Redirect.

What theme do you use, can you not add a newsletter section to that page? If not do you use Klaviyo or another service for you newsletter management?

Let us know, thanks.

Hi @TreonneS

Great question! I’d be happy to help you with this. If you have created a page on your website under Online Store > Pages and you want it to have a newsletter sign up field, you can add one in through your Theme Editor. You will want to create a new template for this page, so that the customizations are specific to the one page and not all pages (unless you want these changes shared across all pages).

To do this you will head over to your Online Store > Themes > Edit the theme file you are using. In the theme editor select the dropdown menu that says Homepage and go to Pages > Create New Template.

In the new template page you can customize this page via the theme editor as you see fit. You can add the newsletter sign up section and more. Once done, save your changes and head back to your main admin so that you can update the page template for your newsletter sign up page.

From the main admin go to Online Store > Pages > Edit the page you want to update. You will see an option called “Theme Template”. Change the page’s template to the new one you just created, save, and view your changes.

Let me know if you need further assistance with making this change! If you can share a screenshot and a link to the page you are working on that would help me with troubleshooting next steps for you.

Thank you for your help. I haven’t had a chance to try everything yet but this the page I’m referring to. There is the email sign up in the footer but I would like to incorporate it into the page.

Thank you for the link! From that page type, setting up a new template and applying it to that page should resolve this for you. The theme editor will allow you to move that newsletter sign up section to a different area instead of being in the footer.

The theme will allow another newsletter section to be added to that new template (if of course there is an available newsletter ‘section’), but removing it from the footer section (if part of that group) would affect all of the other pages, as it is a global element (the header and footer typically are). You might have a very custom theme though - we can’t see it.

To remove the newsletter section from the footer, for that template only, would require a liquid modification (again, if that newsletter section is truly in the footer group).

Cheers.

Is this what I need to choose to create a new template?
