Do you want to create a Beehiiv email signup form on your WordPress website that saves leads to your Beehiiv subscriber list?

In this tutorial, we will learn how to integrate WordPress with Beehiiv via the MailOptin plugin so you can start capturing and saving leads with beautiful, conversion-optimized email optin forms.

First, please ensure you’ve connected WordPress to Beehiiv by authorizing your account inside MailOptin.

Then go to the Optin Campaign page and click the Add New button at the top to create an optin form.

After customizing the form, open the Integration panel, select Beehiiv in the Select Integration dropdown, and select the tier to subscribe users.

You also have the option to assign tags to leads in Beehiiv and map custom fields.

Beehiiv only collects email addresses as the only information from subscribers. To capture subscribers’ names, create a custom field inside of Beehiiv, then click the “Advanced” link in the “Integrations” panel of MailOptin’s form builder to reveal the UI to select the custom field to map names to.

To get the opt-in to display on your site, toggle the activate switch ON at the top (close to the “Save Changes” button).

Navigate to the “Display Rules” panel.

If you want the opt-in form to be displayed everywhere (all pages) on your WordPress site, check “Globally load optin“; otherwise, use the page-level targeting and triggers to determine how and where the opt-in will be shown on your site.
