I would like to move an entire CRM, website, marketing automation settings, blog, landing pages etc. from HubSpot to Microsoft Dynamics & Click Dimensions.
Since Click Dimensions doesn't support much in the way of blogging or landing pages in the same way HubSpot does, I decided to use Wordpress for the blog and landing pages with calls to the ClickDimensions for data capture and processing. This is, for the most part, straightforward.
However, I hit a snag with blog subscriptions. Since blog subscriptions would be handled by Wordpress, is there any easy way to pass the subscribed emails to ClickDimensions from Wordpress, or implement any kind of control on ClickDimensions regarding the emails themselves?
Thanks in advance.

I'm working on a web project that will consist of an online shop that will create some kind of blog post after checkout and let you edit this blog post.
So the customer can just buy a post on my website and edit it as he likes.
The post may contain text and media.
I'm looking for a nice tech stack to develop this online platform.
I have some kind of proof of concept using WordPress, WooCommerce, and a self developed plugin that will create a blog post after a WooCommerce checkout event and turn the ownership of the post to the customer's account.
The plugin also limits the maximum amount of media for upload and restricts access to the media of other users.
Next steps will be to modify the WooCommerce account page and list the blog posts there with a link to the editor, so the customer can edit posts anytime.
But I think this solution lacks scalability.
Depending on the popularity of the platform, there will be a lot of blog posts created, and I fear that someday, after a couple of thousand blog posts with multiple media types, etc., WordPress will come to its limits.
I have read something about static site generators, and I'm wondering if it's possible to have an online shop that will create a static site and let the customer edit it like my WordPress proof of concept now. With a nice editor and the possibility for online payment, etc.
Is there anybody that can recommend a nice stack for this kind of platform? Or maybe someone who can take my fears about the scalability of WordPress away?
I'm developing a WordPress website and finding myself stuck at a point. I have made several e-commerce sites and blogs but haven't really made this type of website.
This is an educational website. I'd like to know how can I implement the following workflow.
1- Someone comes and registers themself.
2- Pays a specific amount.
3- After the confirmation of the amount, he will be redirected to all the resources.
I'm actually done with the registration process, now I'd like to know how can I do the /2 and /3.
If there are any free or paid plugin which offers this workflow, please mention.
You can use Gravity forms (https://docs.gravityforms.com) to display the payment options. This can be used along with a customizable payment plugin (preferably with Gravity Forms integration) that will allow redirection to the required resources on payment confirmation, similar to this plugin offered by Novalnet.
My project is social network website which will be built on CMS. I have decided for WordPress. The thing is I am not so sure about my decision now.
Website should have features like login and register forms, profile making and editing, user generated content from front end of site, content making restriction only on registered users of website, publishing most popular posts on home page.
User posts should be public. What I mean by that is, while I was previewing themes, I noticed that most posts from users were posted in groups. I would like this website to work more like Facebook.
Is it possible to make this sort of website with WordPress without custom plugins? And could you recommend a theme for this sort of project?
Sorry for long question and thanks in advance :D
You should look into Social specific plugin/project for WordPress called BuddyPress. https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/
If you look into buddypress specific themes you might be able to find something which is similar to your goals.
Here is official website https://buddypress.org/ (it is open source free project by WP team)
It has a feature called Activity Stream which you might be looking for which is like FB timeline.
I have a client that has an e-commerce site using Drupal 6.16.
When they discontinue a product, they change the product to unpublished which then returns a 403 error for the average user and Google. This obviously isn't the best option for SEO.
What have people done in similar situations? I was thinking of using the CustomError module to redirect them to a category page or similar, but that effects all 403's on the site and briefly stopped access to the admin of the site.
Thanks!
The best would likely to keep the products published, disabled buying (depending on the e-commerce module/solution) and update the description with reference to a replacement product and/or information about the discontinuation. This way existing links to the discontinued products will still work, and link to relevant and precise information. Which is the best SEO you could have.
I would like to make a streaming store like Lynda.com, Udemy.com, or other video-training websites - where the customer can buy and/or subscribe to my digital library, but the customer can only stream the content, no downloading. Is this something I should do in WordPress, Shopify, or something else? A key aspect would be the customer being able to go back-and-forth between buying an individual stream and a monthly subscription without losing their purchased streams.
The content will be self-created audio files. As far as the audio-player, I was thinking about using SoundCloud.com and privatizing the audio on SoundCloud.com. Then embed the audio onto the site to prevent pirating and rely on a third-party site to host the audio content rather than burdening the hosting provider. Or is there a better solution?
Thanks for any feedback!
You CAN use Wordpress, but there will need to be more involved then just setting up a basic website. You'll need to provide the user with a unique URL to stream the content from.
Other than building a custom platform, you can use something like http://buddypress.org/ to create user profiles. And only allow paid users to access certain content.
Shopify will only help with taking orders. Not giving users account access to login.
You could use shopify, then build out a user login side using something like Heroku. We had a similar goal to build a marketplace for live music bookings - basically the difference here being that the artists were the users, not the customers. We used Collections as profiles and Products as bookable packages. We simply embedded youtube vids and made sure to turn off recommendations in the youtube embed code. We currently make this information public, but it could be behind a login (the basic login/account that shopify provide) in your instance. It would be a little bit manual: e.g. they 'purchase' the subscription, then they create a login at checkout, whereby they're then able to access the videos/audio.
Have a play with our marketplace as an example of what I mean: tremolo.com.au
