EMBED GUIDE

Add a newsletter signup form to your website

Emit turns your RSS feed into a newsletter. To collect readers, drop a subscribe form on your site — it posts straight to the Emit API, double-opt-in is automatic, and you send from your own domain. Below are copy-paste snippets for the most common stacks. Grab your personalized version (with your form token filled in) from the dashboard under Embed.

Plain HTMLHugoWordPress WebflowWixReactHow it works
Replace pk_YOUR_TOKEN with your account's public form token from the dashboard. The public token is safe to ship in client-side HTML — it can only create pending (opt-in) subscribers, nothing else. Every snippet includes a small “powered by emit” link.

Plain HTML (any site)

The universal option. Works without JavaScript: it submits to Emit and redirects to a “check your inbox” page. 

<form action="https://api.rssemit.com/v1/public/subscribe" method="post">
  <input type="hidden" name="token" value="pk_YOUR_TOKEN">
  <input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="https://rssemit.com/subscribed.html">
  <input type="email" name="email" required placeholder="you@example.com">
  <button type="submit">Subscribe</button>
  <a href="https://rssemit.com?ref=embed">powered by emit</a>
</form>

Point redirect at any “thanks, check your inbox” page on your own site if you prefer.

Hugo

Save the HTML above as layouts/partials/subscribe.html, then include it in a template or shortcode: 

{{ partial "subscribe.html" . }}

WordPress

Add a Custom HTML block (Gutenberg) or a Custom HTML widget, and paste the plain-HTML snippet. No plugin required.

Webflow

Drop an Embed element where you want the form and paste the plain-HTML snippet. Publish — that's it.

Wix

Add Embed → Embed HTML (Custom Code) and paste the plain-HTML snippet.

React / Next.js

Use a small component that posts to the public endpoint (no API key needed client-side): 

<form onSubmit={async (e) => {
  e.preventDefault();
  await fetch("https://api.rssemit.com/v1/public/subscribe", {
    method: "POST", mode: "no-cors",
    body: new URLSearchParams({ token: "pk_YOUR_TOKEN", email: e.target.email.value }),
  });
  // double opt-in: show "check your inbox"
}}>
  <input name="email" type="email" required />
  <button>Subscribe</button>
  <a href="https://rssemit.com?ref=embed">powered by emit</a>
</form>
