Vertical Response Newsletter Widget

How do I use the shortcode?

Here’s an example shortcode (Version 1.6+):

[verticalresponse title="Sign Up Here" bg_color="#000000" label_color:"#FFFFFF" border_color="333333" border_width="5" email_input_size=15]

You can overwrite the plugin settings in the shortcode using the following attributes:

• code (default: ”)
• title (default: ‘Sign up for our Newsletter’)
• email_default_value (default: ‘Enter your email address’)
• div_class (default: ‘widget_vr’)
• form_class (default: ‘vr_form’)
• form_id (default: ($number_of_vr_widgets === 1) ? ‘vr_form’ : ‘vr_form_’.$number_of_vr_widgets)
• showname (default: ‘full’)
• bg_color (default: ‘#dddddd’)
• border_color (default: ‘#000000’)
• font_color (default: ‘#333333’)
• label_color (default: ‘#000000’)
• button_bg_color (default: ‘#333333’)
• button_border_color (default: ‘#999999’)
• button_font_color (default: ‘#000000’)
• border_width (default: 1)
• preface (default: ”)
• wrap (default: ‘p’)
• button (default: ‘Subscribe’)
• defaultstyle (default: ‘yes’)
• credit (default: ‘yes’)
• show_vr_code (default: ‘yes’)
• email_input_size (default: 20)
• name_input_size (default: 15)
• last_name_label (default: ‘Last Name:’)
• first_name_label (default: ‘First Name:’)
• email_label (default: ‘Email:’)
• before_widget (default: ‘<div class=”widget [div_class]”>’)
• after_widget (default: ‘</div>’)
• before_title (default: ‘<h4 class=”widgettitle”>’)
• after_title (default: ‘</h4>’)

How do I use the new `add_filters()` functionality? (Added 1.1)

If you want to change some code in the widget, you can use the WordPress add_filter() function to achieve this.

You can add code to your theme’s functions.php file that will modify the widget or shortcode output. Here’s an example:

function my_example_function($widget) { 
    // The $widget variable is the output of the widget
    // This will replace 'this word' with 'that word' in the widget output.
    $widget = str_replace('this word', 'that word', $widget);
    // Make sure to return the $widget variable, or it won't work!
    return $widget;
}
add_filter('vr_widget_form', 'my_example_function');
