 * Hi there,
 * My client use this form code to display the form and collect subscriptions:
 * `<form action="/tak-for-din-tilmelding/ " method="get"><input style="width: 150px;"
   name="name" type="text" placeholder="Indtast emailadresse her..." /> <input name
   ="s2" type="hidden" value="true" /> <input name="subscribe" type="hidden" value
   ="true" /><input style="margin-bottom: -8px; margin-left: -5px;" src="tilmeld.
   jpg" type="image" value="Tilmeld" /></form>`
 * When I use the normal [subscribe2] shortcode and enter an email, click subscribe
   and get to the “Remember to check your email” page which we have created; No 
   submissions are actually done.
 * The website is [http://vinderstrategi.dk](http://vinderstrategi.dk) and the form
   is found under the Nyhedsfeed section.

 * You didn’t need to create your “Remember to check your email” page because Subscribe2
   generates that sort of message automatically on the same page after the form 
   is submitted.
 * To fix your issue you either need to have the [subscribe2] shortcode return the
   posted data to the same page or place the shortcode on your “Remember to check
   your email” page. This will ensure that the Subscribe2 code is available to process
   the submitted email address.

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks for your reply. I tried to add [subscribe2] to the “Remember to check 
   your email” page and I did received the messages on the screen as you mentioned.
   However, I did not receive any email. Furthermore, is there a way to add the [
   subscribe2] shortcode to the homepage and then make it redirect to the “Remember
   to check your email” page instead of showing the message on the same screen?
 * Sincerely,
    Mika

 * If the form is now displaying the correct information but there is no email you
   need to start trouble shooting email generation and delivery on your site. This
   is a good starting point:

 * If you want the the form on your home page you should probably use the Subscribe2
   widget and you can set the ‘landing’ page right there in the widget settings.

 * Hi there,
 * Great I will check that out.
 * Unfortunately the widget section is not enabled in the section on the homepage
   where my client use their subscription field. Is there another way add that code?

 * You may need to manually place Subscribe2 into your theme then. This might help:

 * Hi there,
 * I went ahead and used the shortcode and made the appropriate changes in the plugins
   core files. I made the submission from the homepage work by simple adding the
   shortcode on both the homepage and “Remember to check your email” page. Then 
   I removed the success text from the core-file so it doesn’t show up once the 
   submission has been made 🙂
 * Thanks a lot!
 * Cheers
