[Hustle Pro] Hustle Pro with MailerLite

Hello, we are using Hustle Pro with MailerLite. However, I am facing a few shortcomings in the integration.

First, minor one, is when I add a new group in MailerLite – for the group to appear in Hustle, I must go to integration settings, open the MailerLite integration and save it again. The refresh in form settings does not work.

Second is quite major. When a site visitor subscribes to the same form multiple times, the integration with MailerLite is not triggered for the second time (and any subsequent). It is just triggered the first time.
We use that for sending freebies for newsletter subscription. But this shortcoming breaks it. We cannot send the freebie more than once if the visitor deleted the email, or returned after a long time or so.

Could you please consider enabling re-subscription? According to MailerLite’s documentation, this is completely valid and triggers automation there as expected.

We can even contribute to the integration code, if that was possible, to make your work easier.

Thanks!

    Hi Martin

    I hope you are doing well today!

    First, minor one, is when I add a new group in MailerLite – for the group to appear in Hustle, I must go to integration settings, open the MailerLite integration and save it again. The refresh in form settings does not work.

    You can just refresh the group list from the “Hustle Pro -> Pop-up -> Integrations” page. You do not need to go to the “Hustle Pro -> Integrations” page and resave that. Once you are on the page “Hustle Pro -> Pop-up -> Integrations”, please refresh the list and disconnect then when you open the integration again it fetch the updated groups from MailerLite. Here’s a quick video on how to do this, please check:

    Second is quite major. When a site visitor subscribes to the same form multiple times, the integration with MailerLite is not triggered for the second time (and any subsequent). It is just triggered the first time.

    In this case, you need to activate the “Repeat workflow for subscribers who complete the form more than once” on MailerLite’s end. Please follow the instructions from here: http://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/92245-when-a-subscriber-completes-a-form

    Also, as a workaround, I would like to share another method. You can create an Informational pup-up instead of an Email Opt-in pop-up in Hustle. Then paste the MailerLite generated HTML form code. So MailerLite form works directly without using any integration.

    Please let us know if none of these methods helps to resolve the issue you are facing or if you have any concerns and questions, have a nice day!

    Kind regards,
    Ohid

    Thank you very much for your advise! I will give it a try using the form.

    For the groups refresh – it only works when I open the integration, hit refresh, close the integration and open it again. I would expect it to immediately add the new group without the need to close and reopen. This way it looks like it does not work. But never mind. This is not a deal breaker.
