## Description

Want to do email marketing – without all the hassle?

AWeber’s WordPress plugin has all the tools you need to:

 * Grow your email list
 * Increase website traffic
 * Monetize your content
 * Sell your products or services
 * Automate your emails

We get it: You’re busy. You may want to do more with email and your marketing, but
you’ve got a business to run.

This is the plugin for you. We make it easy to get started, with free migrations
and 24/7 customer service (via chat, email, phone, or knowledge base).

Whether you’ve been in business for ten years or are just getting started, this 
plugin will make marketing easier. Here’s how:

### Grow your email list

 1. Embed AWeber [landing pages](https://www.aweber.com/landing-page-builder.htm) and
    [sign up forms](https://www.aweber.com/sign-up-forms.htm) on your WordPress site.
 2. Split-test sign up forms to grow your list faster.
 3. Send contacts captured via [Elementor to AWeber](https://www.aweber.com/integrations/content-management/elementor/).
 4. Automatically add visitors who fill out a sign up form on your WordPress site to
    your list in AWeber.
 5. Use tags and segments to track where subscribers signed up from, add subscribers
    to automations, or send dynamic content or hyper-targeted emails.
 6. Add people who comment on your WordPress site to your list in AWeber.

### Increase your website traffic

 1. Use [web push notifications](https://www.aweber.com/web-push-notifications.htm)
    to send short messages straight to a subscriber’s desktop with a link to your website.
 2. Send [email marketing](https://www.aweber.com/email-marketing-features.htm) messages
    to promote your latest news, offers, or content.

### Monetize your content

 1. Set up [ecommerce landing pages](https://www.aweber.com/aweber-for-ecommerce.htm)
    to accept monthly, quarterly, or annual subscription payments.

### Sell your products or services

 1. Send an email to your list with a link to your ecommerce landing page. Promote 
    your product or service and collect payments through Stripe, Etsy or PayPal.

### Automate your emails

 1. Set up an [email automation](https://www.aweber.com/email-automation.htm) to welcome
    new subscribers who sign up on your WordPress site.
 2. Automatically send an email after someone makes a purchase, abandons their cart,
    or interacts with your email.
 3. Collect custom information about your subscribers so you can send them targeted
    emails.
 4. Get started with an [email template](https://www.aweber.com/html-email-templates.htm)
    or [landing page template](https://www.aweber.com/templates/landing-pages/), then
    use the [drag-and-drop builder](https://www.aweber.com/drag-and-drop.htm) to customize
    it to match your brand.
 5. [Integrate](https://www.aweber.com/integrations/) your emails with hundreds of 
    online solutions.
 6. [Automatically send newsletters](https://www.aweber.com/email-newsletters.htm) 
    with your latest content published in WordPress or on YouTube.

### 󠀁[This plugin is no longer functional.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-plugin-is-no-longer-functional/)󠁿

 [ulrichgenisson](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ulrichgenisson/) March 24, 2026

I am reaching out regarding a critical issue with the AWeber for WordPress plugin
that started occurring on my website on February 21st, 2026. This issue is causing
Fatal Errors during our user registration process, preventing other essential plugins(
like LearnDash and PaidMembership Pro) from completing their tasks. Technical Environment:
WordPress Version: 6.9.4 PHP Version: 8.3 Plugin: AWeber for WordPress The Error:
My PHP error logs are consistently showing the following Fatal Error: PHP Fatal 
error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument #1 ($item) must be of type AWeber\Model\AWeberCollectionItem,
null given, called in […]/wp-content/plugins/aweber-for-wordpress/class-aweber-core.
php on line 107 Problem Analysis: The error appears to be triggered during the user
registration/checkout hook. It seems that the plugin is receiving a null value or
an unexpected data structure from the AWeber API, which the current plugin code 
does not handle, leading to a script crash. As a result, the entire PHP execution
stops at the AWeber integration step, preventing subsequent actions (such as granting
course access in LearnDash) from executing, even though the payment is successful(
Stripe 200 OK). Response from AWeber support—after identifying the bug took me 34
working days: Thanks for reaching out! This is a known issue and a fix is currently
being worked on. We will follow up via email once the fix is in place. …/… I do 
not have an ETA for when this will be resolved but it is actively being looked into.

Looks like all of the bad reviews were from 3 to 11 years ago. It works great. I
love the landing pages that you can create with it as well. Some themes need to 
get on board with integrations.

This plugin works for me. With its shortcode I can place a sign-up form anywhere
I want or need one.

Installed, got it working fairly easily. Wanted to drop a review as it has outdated
reviews that don’t give it proper credit as it is right now. Almost didn’t install
because of it.

Forms seem to work just fine. Subscribers are added when someone comments. Landing
pages when connected to a wordpress page always get an error when attempting to 
process a payment. Aweber is connected to Stripe for payment processing in my case.
I am running WordPress 6.0.2 and PHP 7.4 The Aweber plugin is up to date
