Contact Form Integration for MailerLite, for Joomla
Adds people who send your Joomla contact form to a MailerLite group. Works with Joomla’s built-in contact form on Joomla 4.4, 5 and 6. Free, GPLv2 or later.
Install
- Download the package: latest release feed (Joomla reads this feed for updates).
- In Joomla, go to System, Install, Extensions, and upload the package ZIP. The package installs a component and a system plugin.
- Updates appear in System, Update, Extensions, like any other extension.
Set up
- Open Components, Contact Form Integration for MailerLite.
- Paste your MailerLite API key and click Connect. Your groups and fields load.
- Choose the group new subscribers go to.
- Map the contact form fields (name, email, and any custom fields) to MailerLite fields.
- Consent field: optional. Leave it on “No consent field” to add every valid submission, or pick a checkbox from your contact form and the accepted values; then only ticked submissions are added.
- Choose the subscriber status (active or unconfirmed with double opt-in), what happens to existing subscribers, and whether consent is recorded.
- Save and activate.
What happens on a submission
The visitor gets the normal Joomla response first; the subscriber is sent to MailerLite after that, so a slow or failing MailerLite never delays the form. Refused or failed sends are logged in the component, never shown to the visitor. Invalid email addresses are not sent.
Help us improve
The component can share anonymous usage signals with us (which Joomla and PHP versions are in use, whether sends succeed). It is on by default and can be turned off on the settings screen. See the privacy page.
