This tutorial features the Feast Plugin, which contains theme enhancements.
The Modern Menu integrates a "Subscribe" button that provides a call-to-action for readers to sign up for your newsletter the entire time they're on your site.
This allows you to:
- increase pagespeed by removing javascript provided by newsletter providers from every page on your site
- improve accessibility by removing forms that lack proper headings and form labels
- improve CLS by preventing forms from forcing the browser to re-render the page when it loads
- improve user experience by removing annoying pop overs
- only load javascript on a single page, reducing potential javascript conflicts
- provide a better user experience, giving them a subscribe button when they want to subscribe, not at an intrusive point in your content
See the rethinking the newsletter post for further details.
Examples
Katy McAvoy says
How do I connect the Subscribe button to a form action? When I check the box, it adds it to my mobile menu, but then I get a 404 error if I click on it and I'm not seeing where I'm supposed to put in the form action link.
Skylar says
You simply create a page with the slug "subscribe" and embed your form into that page.
Louise Dam says
How do I translate the 'subscribe' button to danish?
Skylar says
This will be available in version 5.6.2, we've added a "Translation" section above.

Perfect! Thank you for a quick response 🙂
