MailPoet Forms
MailPoet Forms is the form-building feature of the MailPoet plugin for WordPress. It lets you create and embed newsletter subscription forms directly on your website. With Advanced Form Integration, you can connect MailPoet form submissions to external platforms like CRMs, automation tools, and email services.

- Meta information: Form ID and Form Name
How to set up
- Go to AFI → Add New in your WordPress dashboard.
- Under Trigger, select MailPoet as the Form Provider.
- Select the specific MailPoet form from the dropdown.
- Under Action, choose your destination platform and task.
- Map the MailPoet form fields to the fields in your destination platform.
- Click Save Integration.
Field support
AFI supports all standard and custom MailPoet form fields. There are no limitations based on your AFI plan for this sender integration.
Use cases
- Add MailPoet form subscribers to an external CRM or email marketing platform.
- Trigger a welcome email sequence in an external tool when someone subscribes.
- Sync subscriber data to Google Sheets or a database for reporting.
Troubleshooting
Form not listed in the dropdown
Make sure the MailPoet plugin is installed, activated, and that at least one form has been created. If the form still does not appear, contact support.
Field missing from the mapping table
Custom fields must be properly configured in the MailPoet form for them to appear. Try submitting the form once while AFI is active so the fields can be detected.
