In some cases it is necessary to redirect request from your phpList installation to a website in your cms.
PHPList does provide custom pages, but sometimes it is easier to redirect request to your cms, because in a cms for example, you already have your template and all your informations. You don’t have to write the html code again, you just create a new article and your done. So for all that were looking for an easy way, there is none!

You have to edit php code! Let’s start.

First of all, the confirmation page:

Open the file /lists/index.php at line: 531 (remove the dots in the html tags)

$res = '';
$res .= $data["header"];
$res .= '<.h1>'.$info.'<./h1>';
$res .= $html;
$res .= "<.P>".$GLOBALS["PoweredBy"].'';
$res .= $data["footer"];
return $res;


Modify it by adding the following:

$res = '';
/*$res .= $data["header"];
$res .= '<.h1>'.$info.'<./h1>';
$res .= $html;
$res .= "<.P>".$GLOBALS["PoweredBy"].'<./p>';
$res .= $data["footer"];
*/
$res = header("Location: http://www.spamcollect.com/confirmation_page");
return $res;


Next step is the unsubscription page.
Goto line: 589
There you see the following:


if ($userid) {
$res .= '<.h1>...'.$GLOBALS["strUnsubscribeDone"] ."<./h1><.P>";
$res .= $GLOBALS["PoweredBy"].'<./p>';
$res .= $pagedata["footer"];
return $res;
}


Change it to:


if ($userid)
/*$res .= '<.h1>...'.$GLOBALS["strUnsubscribeDone"] ."<./h1><.P>";
$res .= $GLOBALS["PoweredBy"].'<./p>';
$res .= $pagedata["footer"];*/
$res = header("Location: http://www.spamcollect.com/unsubscribe_confirm");
return $res;

The last one is the subscribe page. To change that, you’ll have to open the file lists/admin/subscribelib2.php.
Goto line: 288


if ($subscribepagedata["thankyoupage"]) {
$thankyoupage = $subscribepagedata["thankyoupage"];
} else {
$thankyoupage = '<.h3>'.$strThanks.'<./h3>'. $strEmailConfirmation;
}


Modify it so it looks like:

if ($subscribepagedata["thankyoupage"]) {
//$thankyoupage = $subscribepagedata["thankyoupage"];
header('Location: http://www.spamcollect.com/subscription_successful');
} else {
//$thankyoupage = '<.h3>'.$strThanks.'<./h3>'. $strEmailConfirmation;
header("Location: http://www.spamcollect.com/subscription_successful");
}


Now you’re done and your users won’t see any pages from phplist.
