Add an iContact signup form to your sidebar or content and easily update how the form looks.

== Description ==

<h3>Simple iContact Signup Form Installation on Your Blog</h3>

__Note: Plugin requires an <a href="http://bit.ly/icontact-email-marketing" rel="nofollow">iContact account</a>.__

Add the iContact 'Automatic Sign-up Form' to your sidebar with this widget. Simply paste the code from the form you created in iContact into this widget. Your form will be converted into HTML (instead of Javascript, which takes more time to load).

Change the width of your form, the submit button text, and more! (Check out the screenshot.)

Includes __shortcode support__ -- add an iContact form in any page or post by typing `[iContact]` inside the page or post content.

Yes, it requires at least a free iContact account. __<a href="http://bit.ly/icontact-email-marketing" rel="nofollow">Try iContact free for 15 days</a>.__

iContact is a leader in email newsletters and surveys. Their toolset is cost effective, and full-featured compared to their competitors. If you haven't chosen a email newsletter company, you should try iContact.

= How do I use the new `add_filters()` functionality? (Added 1.1) =
If you want to change some code in the widget, you can use the WordPress `add_filter()` function to achieve this.

You can add code to your theme's `functions.php` file that will modify the widget or shortcode output. Here's an example:
<pre>
function my_example_function($widget) { 
	// The $widget variable is the output of the widget
	// This will replace 'this word' with 'that word' in the widget output.
	$widget = str_replace('this word', 'that word', $widget);
	// Make sure to return the $widget variable, or it won't work!
	return $widget;
}
add_filter('icontact_signup_form_code', 'my_example_function');
</pre>
