    Hi Nancy,

    Do you have the Constant Contact plugin? Are your subscribers not receiving the Welcome Email, automated email, or any email?

    that is correct. Off of my contact form I have tried to subscribe for my husbands email and my personal email. We are not getting those. I did create a welcome letter with Constant Contact which I am able to send out. and look at but there is nothing going automatically to anyone who signs in. I thought I may have my set up wrong in word press. I have changed my site some.

    Under Contact forms it shows I have a subscribe form but it will not show up on my site so I am a little confused. Do I need to totally remove some elements so that it will work. I really believe i have a setting problem but I have watched all the videos and it just doesn’t work.

    is there a chat line or phone number where I can talk with someone to walk me though whatever I have messed up?

    Kinda lost. thanks for any assistance.

    From my understanding, for an email to send out automatically through the plugin or external sign up form we need to create an Automated series instead of a Welcome Email. See this link for further instructions. Are you on the trial constant contact account? Let me know if this helps.

      <div>I have a trial Constant Contact account. It does not allow me to set up an Automated Email Series, but I was able to set up an Automated Welcome Email. I included a link to my lead magnet, which is stored in WordPress. It is triggered when someone subscribes from the blog opt-in form.
      </div><div>

      I just tested it, and a new subscriber gets the welcome email as soon as the subscription goes in.

      Hope that helps.
