Email Signup Form - Like what used to be available through Online Express
We use the old OEX email signup form on our website. Now that we create our email blasts within RE NXT, I'd like to have control over email signups on this platform too. An easier way to approve sign-ups would be great too!
It's baffling that we are being encouraged to move to RE NXT web view to send emails, but we still have to go into a dated, clunky database to process new email signups. I lose valuable work time just waiting for the database view to load. Please prioritize this feature in RE NXT. It would also be amazing if we could add fields such as phone number, birthdate, email preferences etc. and not just be limited to first name, last name, email. This is a basic thing that most marketing platforms offer. Why can't Blackbaud?
This is really needed. I see below there's a workaround to create a free event registration form, but that would be tracked in the events tile in constituent records rather than the consent tile, which isn't ideal. We'd really like to switch over from Online Express but it doesn't seem like this is an option for us yet.
This feature would be especially helpful for us as we try to streamline our processes and bring as much as possible into NXT, as we currently use a seperate email provider
I can't believe there still isn't a native way to have someone sign up for emails in NXT in 2023. Everyone is too used to workarounds for something that should be a standard option
Using RE NXT Events - Online Event Registration and adding a $0 fee, and having consent categories, solicit codes and business rules set up, you can have a single URL that allows constituents to opt-in (yes) or Opt-out (no) any content type you wish to specify. It works great--well at least if everyone is in the united states. See the idea bank link I posted just before this.
The OLX signup form is so barebones - there's no way to offer options for multiple email lists. It would be great if NXT offered the option of creating multiple email signup forms (i.e. for different pages of the organization website) and/or allowed us to offer supporters the option of which lists to subscribe to.
We want to be able to embed forms like "contact us" or "get updates" in our website, without having direct people to other websites like Luminate Online.
We like the ability to create donation forms in RE NXT. We want to have a similar way to create forms for "contact us" or "get updates", where they can opt in to being subscribed to an email newsletter.
It is wild that this STILL isn't available, 4 years after this (and similar Ideas) was posted.

This would be amazing!
This would make it so much easier for folks to sign up for our e-news!

This feature would help us understand exactly what type of communication our constituents would like to receive.
