Dos and Don’ts
- Add the widget in a prominent position on the website so it will attract as many new subscribers as possible.
Common Problems/Mistakes
My widget is not showing when I leave the editor.
Make sure that the “Make this widget visible?” checkbox is ticked in the properties for that widget.
Common Questions/FAQs
Do I need to process sign-ups?
The patient enters their email address and receives a confirmation email which validates their registration. This is an automatic process and the practice does not need to do anything. You can then send a newsletter to all patients who have subscribed via FPMS Pro.
