Title: Design & Functionality Recommendations Last modified: May 29, 2020 --- # Design & Functionality Recommendations * Resolved [CL Cannon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/courtneycannon/) * (@courtneycannon) * [5 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/design-functionality-recommendations/) * Hello, I am trying to develop a subsite as a service website for an expansion of my business. My business will be a daily newsletter with free and discounted books submitted by authors and delivered to readers. I’ve seen a lot of competitor websites out there, and I’m having trouble figuring out how to achieve a few things. I’m looking for plugin or service recommendations to build a similar website to`https://bookrebel.com`. I am using Mailerlite for my newsletter service, so I’d like something that could make custom signup forms with interest groups attached to that service. I’d also like a client login portal that would be able to deliver analytics about the service to the customer. - This topic was modified 5 years, 10 months ago by [Steven Stern (sterndata)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sterndata/). * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdesign-functionality-recommendations%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) * [corrinarusso](https://wordpress.org/support/users/corrinarusso/) * (@corrinarusso) * [5 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/design-functionality-recommendations/#post-12912918) * What does the wesbite at bookrebel.com functionally *do* that you want to emulate? * You can crwate your own custom fields in the forms of your Mialerlite : [http://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/108704-how-to-create-and-use-custom-fields](http://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/108704-how-to-create-and-use-custom-fields) [http://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/33801-creating-custom-fields](http://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/33801-creating-custom-fields) * For membership, and content restriction I like Ultimate Member : [https://ultimatemember.com/features/](https://ultimatemember.com/features/) [https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-member/](https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-member/) * Thread Starter [CL Cannon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/courtneycannon/) * (@courtneycannon) * [5 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/design-functionality-recommendations/#post-12914180) * It has a membership function, which I already know how to do, but the sign-up form is much more elegant than anything I’ve been able to do within Mailerlite’s form functions, which is why I’m wondering if there’s a form plugin I can connect Mailerlite to that does include the interest groups I need. Right now my form looks pretty clunky because I can’t do a multi-step sign-up form and interest groups can only go into a list of checkboxes in one column. Book Rebel has these in nice columns with a more round button selection that looks clean. And the other really big thing is analytics. An author can book a promotion with BookRebel to have their book promoted in the company’s newsletter and then they get an analytics dashboard that is updated hourly with results like how many people clicked on the book and how many opened the email. * Here are some screenshots of the backend for an author. * [https://i.ibb.co/pfkFm69/screenshot-bookrebel-com-2020-05-30-06-13-33.png](https://i.ibb.co/pfkFm69/screenshot-bookrebel-com-2020-05-30-06-13-33.png) * [https://i.ibb.co/09mJ4qC/screenshot-bookrebel-com-2020-05-30-06-13-55.png](https://i.ibb.co/09mJ4qC/screenshot-bookrebel-com-2020-05-30-06-13-55.png) - This reply was modified 5 years, 10 months ago by [CL Cannon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/courtneycannon/). * [corrinarusso](https://wordpress.org/support/users/corrinarusso/) * (@corrinarusso) * [5 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/design-functionality-recommendations/#post-12914783) * Here is a list of form integrations you can use for Mailerlite : [https://www.mailerlite.com/integrations/signup-form?q=&hPP=6&idx=default&p=0](https://www.mailerlite.com/integrations/signup-form?q=&hPP=6&idx=default&p=0) * Is this the form you are referring to ?
