Newsletter compact

The Newsletter (Compact) section promotes your email newsletter with a minimal on-page signup form. Customize this section with a flexible layout, multiple style blocks, social media icons, and an optional image.

See the Newsletter section for a more prominent sign-up form with further design elements. The Popup and Footer sections can also include a newsletter signup block.

Newsletter subscribers are added to your "accepts marketing" Customers list. You can learn more about how to manage Shopify customer emails from their Email subscriber list management ↗ and Using Shopify Email for email marketing ↗ article.

Editing templates will change all pages that use the same template. Create new templates for different page layouts, or show dynamic page content in the same template.
