Step 3: Create a Bento WordPress Form
To create a Bento optin form for your WordPress website, navigate to MailOptin > Optin Campaigns > Add New.

Enter a title for the optin campaign, select the optin type (for this tutorial, we’ll choose Lightbox), and click the optin form design you want.

You will then be redirected to the form builder, which has options and the flexibility to customize the Bento optin form to your heart’s content.

After customizing the form, open the Integration panel and select Bento as the integration. You can specify tags to assign to leads and map custom fields.

To display the Bento email signup form on your site, toggle the activate switch ON at the top (near the “Save Changes” button).

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

Finally, save the changes.
Preview your WordPress website, and you should see the Bento optin displayed. If it doesn’t show up, clear your website and browser cache.
