How to use tags like {name} on normal WP-page?

[nounours777]

Hi,

Primo, mille grazie for this genious plugin!!!!

For the page containing the welcome message, I can either use the automatic page using the text “welcome message” under “List building > subscription > welcome”. Or, I can give just below an address of a custom page. This is what I want to use.

The problem: using tags like {name} do obviously not work on this page. Is there a possibility to use them there?? (I tried using a shortcode something like [newsletter_field name="name"], but it gave me a name input field instead of the name text).

=> If this is not possible, then having a custom built welcome page is essentially useless? (The reason why I want to use a custom page is that I want to style it using the usual graphical elements from my template … but maybe I need to manually emulate this?).

Thanks a lot!

Gilberto
