Embed a form on dev.to ?

Is it possible to embed a form on dev.to ?

I tried to use the

tag but it did not work. 😞

I'd really like to embed my newsletter signup form on post I create here. πŸ™‚

Hi Nicholas, there's currently no way to do that. If you think about it allowing general embedding of untrusted content could lead to potential security problems.

I'm not saying yours would be, but well... :)

Yes you're right !

What about allowing embedding of MailChimp or Upscribe form ?

So, currently the embedding is achieved through what we call "liquid tags". There are a bunch of them here github.com/thepracticaldev/dev.to/...

You can request a new one opening an issue on the repository, but I think that you should go the route of using listings for promotional content. You can find a few newsletters already in the "Misc" category
