  • Screenshots


Adding email signup forms to your blog has never been easier.

In 2 easy steps, connect to one of the listed email services below, or use your custom form code to begin placing email signup forms throughout your blog. It’s easy, just drag a Widget.

Kolakube Email Forms currently integrates with:

  • AWeber
  • MailChimp
  • ActiveCampaign
  • ConvertKit
  • Custom HTML Form Codes

NEW: See what’s new in version 1.1  · Watch this quick demonstration video →

Kolakube Email Forms does its best to inherit your theme’s CSS styles and offers no design options. This strictly outputs email form codes and relies on your theme to style it (can easily be tweaked with CSS).

NOTE: more email services will be added soon. Please leave a review and tell me about your experience using this plugin! More features available in Marketers Delight

What if my Email Service Provider isn’t integrated?

As more email services are included in this plugin (like GetResponse and Constant Contact), you can place your custom HTML form code into the widget.

Can I customize email forms with this plugin?

Yes, the form will style to match with your theme and can be further customized with CSS in a child theme.

As of version 1.1, you can customize the full email form HTML template with a child theme, as well as hook into various places throughout the email form. Read documentation →

  • You can use basic HTML in title, description, and the after form text fields for further customization.
