The Aweber Code Doesn’t Work in My WordPress Post

By / March 30, 2023

I started a blog a while back and have been using the Aweber service to send out email campaigns based on what I write. Recently I’ve been having issues with the code not working as it should in my blog posts. The code is supposed to populate content from my blog posts into a form, allowing the reader to sign up for my mailing list or to leave a comment. But for some reason, the code doesn’t work in all my posts. Does anyone have any idea why this could be?

The Code

You can type the code below into your website’s source editor to pull in the content from my blog posts and display it in a form:

<ul>

  • <h2>Blog</h2>
  • <p><ul>
  • <li><h2>Blog post title</h2>
  • <p>Blog article content here</p>
  • <li><h2>Blog post title</h2>
  • <p>Blog article content here</p>
  • </ul>
  • </p>

    </ul>

    You can also use this code to pull in the content from relevant blog posts and display it in a form, allowing the reader to leave a comment or sign up for the newsletter:

    <ul>

  • <h2>Blog</h2>
  • <p><ul>
  • <li><h2>Blog post title</h2>
  • <p>Blog article content here</p>
  • <li><h2>Blog post title</h2>
  • <p>Blog article content here</p>
  • </ul>
  • </p>

    </ul>

    The Issue

    The issue I’m running into is that when I use the code above to pull in the content from the blog posts, it works great in some of the older posts but breaks down in the newer ones. I even started a blog a while back and have been using the Aweber service to send out email campaigns based on what I write. Recently I’ve been having issues with the code not working as it should in my blog posts. Does anyone have any idea why this could be?

    Here’s an example of one of the posts where the code breaks down.

    <ul>

  • <h2>Blog</h2>
  • <p><ul>
  • <li><h2>Blog post title</h2>
  • <p>Blog article content here</p>
  • <li><h2>Blog post title</h2>
  • <p>Blog article content here</p>
  • </ul>
  • </p>

    </ul>

    As you can see, the code above is supposed to pull the content from my blog post into a form, allowing the reader to sign up for my mailing list or to leave a comment. But for some reason, it doesn’t work. I’ve even tried pasting the code in several places within the same post but it still doesn’t seem to work.

    Confirmed

    So, after trying a few different things and confirming the issue, I’m pretty sure the issue is with WordPress itself. I’m running the latest stable release of WordPress and the code snippet above works great in my test blog but not in my live one. Could this be an issue on their end or mine? I’m not sure.

    Does anyone have any idea why this could be?
