Interspire email marketer speed update#
This will then automatically update the IEM newsletter system. I now have a third party system ( Zencart Shopping Cart) in which account holders can view their newsletter subscriptions and change them such us subscribe or unsubscribe. I initially realised there is no UpdateSubscriber function within the API, and so had to create my own. So with a few days over the weekend and missing all this great sun :( I have written my own functions :) Unfortunately Interspire took a long time to respond with the answer “ we do not provide technical support for customization, integration, or the API“! Not only a long response time, but with no help on what is a comparatively expensive system for small businesses (the price has more than doubled since last year). Integrating Interspire Email Marketer into a Third Party Systemįirstly I have to say I needed help with this. This blog gives you a quick overview of the files to edit. Interspire stated they don’t provide support on technical aspects of the API, so I have had to create my own API functions until they realise the benefit of this and write one themselves. It does have one drawback though, and that’s the system API does not support integrating it into third party applications so subscribers can update their newsletter preferences from within another system. At least, I cannot find any other that comes close to it’s features, and I have looked hard. Interspire Email Marketer (IEM), in my opinion, is the best newsletter system on the market that can be downloaded and installed on your own server.

I therefore do not think I should be giving out the scripts anymore as I have been, but instead would like to investigate the subscribers.php API in more detail. Update December 15th 2009: As stated in the comments below, I believe the IEM API to be more powerful than the Interspire instructions suggest, and as such believe some of my coding and changes are not required, or could be improved. I hope to be able to write another blog on this to explain it more, but in the meantime you can contact me to obtain an email I sent to someone earlier that explains it in more detail. So there is no need to modify the xml.php or subscribers.php files to do some updates like for Custom Fields. Update January 13th 2010: I had a little breakthrough this evening… It’s possible to use the XML API to call PHP functions in the subscribers.php file. Please contact me if you would like the file.

Please see my long comment below for the email I send people. I would really like to spend more time on this and write a more definitive guide, but alas, time gets the better of me. Update May 6th 2010: I have quite a lot of people asking for my code, but I need to point out it is not complete at all, but more like a half baked attempt to work out this API thing.
