[Solved] Newsletter block on homepage

[Officer]

Hello,

I am just wondering how can I add a "Subscribe to our Newsletter" box in the homepage. I think this already exists when the member wants to register upon purchasing an item (I think it's a checkbox that the user can check/uncheck), however, I'd love to add another box to the homepage for both registered and unregistered users so they can put their email address and hit "Subscribe" and their email will be saved in our Backoffice so we can send them newsletter in the future.

Your help is mostly appreciated.

Usually you can use the transplant function of modules.
But I checked this for newletter block, it seems not working.

You cam modify current module blocknewlatter to add a hook to home
1. Change this one lin in install()

FROM

          if (parent::install() == false OR $this->registerHook('leftColumn') == false)

TO

         if (parent::install() == false OR $this->registerHook('leftColumn') == false OR $this->registerHook('home') == false)

2. Add following code

function hookHome($params)
{
return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);
}

3. un-insall/re-insyall the module
