Shortcode Attributes
Additional Information
Please note that each action the button is set to perform will increase the number of API calls. For example, applying one tag and triggering one API Goal will use double the API calls over triggering a single action.
If you apply two tags such as tag_ids=123,456 and triggering a goal using goals=APIexample then you are using triple the API calls. In the event you need to trigger multiple actions, we’d recommend triggering a single action whether that be a tag application, API goal, or an actionset that can then be setup in Infusionsoft to trigger other actions. For instance, you can use a tag goal in a campaign to wait for the tag being applied via the shortcode and use that to apply more tags and run other options.
The benefit of using a tag goal or API goal is that you can use campaign builder to manage the workflow, but the actions aren’t guaranteed to happen immediately. You will also need to do an update-contact HTTP POST to push any changes back to Memberium after they’re completed.
You can use an actionset if you want the actions to happen “instantly”, and because the actionset API call runs synchronously and reports what changes were made, Memberium can autodetect if it needs to update tags. Actionsets can also do some actions that Campaign Builder cannot do. Actionsets can also run campaign builder sequences by applying tags to run tag goals. The downside is that actionsets can take longer since all the actions have to process before the actionset returns control to the website.
Sample CSS code
The below code shows how you can style this Actionset button:
#memb_actionset_button_1 {
width:150px;
margin-top:20px;
text-align:center;
font-size:19px;
padding:16px 31px;
background-color:#ffffff;
}
