My Subscriptions

Configuring My Subscriptions

Quick Start

Get the My Subscriptions Widget up and running to help people stay connected. See Quick Start to get started.

If the shared script hasn't been added to your website, add it to the appropriate webpage, replacing "example-church.com" with the base URL of your church's website.

<script id="MPWidgets" src="https://example-church.com/widgets/dist/MPWidgets.js"></script>

Create a webpage on your website that will display your My Subscriptions Widget or identify the page on your website where it will be displayed.

Add the My Subscriptions Widget to your church website by placing this snippet of code in the body of your chosen webpage. 

<mpp-subscriptions></mpp-subscriptions>
Tip: While not mandatory, this snippet would typically be placed inside a <div> element with the class "container".

Widget Configuration

This widget does not require any attributes. It's ready to go!

Note: This widget is only available to users who have authenticated via the Login Widget. New users have the opportunity to create an account through the Login flow. If needed, the page containing this widget could be added as a navigation item in the Login menu, making it available only after authentication. See Login Configuration for information about extending the drop-down menu.

Configure Your Widget

Fill out the Widget Configurator below, copy your generated widget code, and paste it into your website.

Platform Configuration

  • Available Online: All publications where the Available Online field is set to Yes will display.
  • Online Sort Order: Publications with an Online Sort Order display at the top of the list, ordered by ascending values. Publications without an Online Sort Order are shown below and are sorted alphabetically by Publication Title.
  • Title/Description: Publications can indicate their target audience (in the Title or Description), but nothing prevents any user from subscribing to any available publication.

Attach a compelling image to the Publication record to get people excited about it! If there is no image, a stock image will display. File formats supported both by browsers and the Platform are: bmp, gif, jpg, and png. The widget software will crop and focus on the center of the image according to an ideal ratio of 59/32.

Customization

Want to make sure the Update Subscriptions button matches your church's branding? Think "Check the box to subscribe" needs updating? Customize your Widgets!

CSS: Every Widget accepts the Custom CSS attribute. Include it before the opening Widget tag is closed and customize backgrounds, button colors, and more!

Application Labels: You can customize what displays when a Publication doesn't have a description. To make changes, go to System Setup > Application Labels and update the appropriate label(s). Note that you are responsible for all translations if the default is not used.

  • mpp-subscriptions.noDescriptionText: Text that appears for any Publication without a Description. The default is "Check the box to subscribe."
  • mpp-subscriptions.updateButtonText: Text that appears on the button. Default is "Update Subscriptions."
