Question

I'm running magento 1.7.0.2 and I want the checkbox of the newsletter subscription on the registration page checked by default. I have followed a few hacks but they were all written for older versions of magento. Here's a link to one of the hacks which I tried and didn't work: Force newsletter subscription in Magento

Any help is greatly appreciated!

<div class="account-create">

Solution

Here is what worked for me. If you want the newsletter opt in on the customer account registration page checked by default, get this file: /app/design/frontend/your_theme/default/template/customer/form/regist‌​er.phtml

Find this line:

<?php if ($this->isNewsletterEnabled()): ?>

Right below it, add this:

<?php
$checked = true;
if($this->getFormData()->getEmail()) {
if(!$this->getFormData()->getIsSubscribed()) {
    $checked = true;
    }
}   
 ?>

Then Find this div 

<div class="input-box">

Replace the code in the div with this code:

<input type="checkbox" name="is_subscribed" title="<?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?>" value="1" id="is_subscribed" checked="checked" class="checkbox" />

That's it! Save and upload the file.

OTHER TIPS

Please find the following code in register.phtml file:

<?php if ($this->isNewsletterEnabled()): ?>
        <li class="control">
            <div class="input-box">
                 <li>
             <input type="checkbox" name="is_subscribed" title="<?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?>" value="1" id="is_subscribed" <?php if($this->getFormData()->getIsSubscribed()){ ?> checked="checked"<?php }elseif($this->getFormData()->getIsSubscribed == NULL){ ?> checked="checked"<?php }?> />
            <label for="is_subscribed"><?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?></label>
        </li>
    </div>
    <label for="is_subscribed"><?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?></label>
    <?php /* Extensions placeholder */ ?>
    <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('customer.form.register.newsletter')?>
</li>
<?php endif ?>

And Replace with the following code :

<?php if ($this->isNewsletterEnabled()): ?>
<?php
$checked = true;
if($this->getFormData()->getEmail()) {
    if(!$this->getFormData()->getIsSubscribed()) {
        $checked = false;
    }
}   
 ?>
<li class="control">
<div class="input-box">
    <input type="checkbox" name="is_subscribed" title="<?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?>" value="1" id="is_subscribed"<?php if($checked): ?> checked="checked"<?php endif; ?> class="checkbox" />
</div>
<label for="is_subscribed"><?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?></label>
<?php /* Extensions placeholder */ ?>
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('customer.form.register.newsletter')?>
</li>
<?php endif ?>

I have used php for this because. by this we can get user preference after user submit form and error occur

Hope this Help !!

Please Add the following code in register.phtml file:

Add chaked End of line Input type

<input type="checkbox" name="is_subscribed" title="<?php echo $this->__('Sign Up for Newsletter') ?>" value="1" id="is_subscribed"<?php if($this->getFormData()->getIsSubscribed()): ?> checked="checked"<?php endif; ?> class="checkbox" checked />
