Updated On : September 13, 2026By : Reading Time : 1 minute

Key Takeaways

  • Nexter Blocks Pro adds each Form block submission to a GetResponse list when Action After Submit is set to GetResponse.
  • GetResponse setup needs an API Key from Tools > Integrations and API > API and a List Token from the target list settings.
  • Each submission sends the visitor’s email and the first Name Field, while other fields are not sent to GetResponse.

Sending form sign-ups straight to GetResponse keeps your list growing without manual imports.

The Form block in Nexter Blocks Pro adds each visitor who submits your form to a GetResponse list.

For every Form setting in one place, see the Form block guide.

Before You Start

  • Edition: Pro — The GetResponse action needs Nexter Blocks Pro.
  • Block to enable: Form, switched on under Nexter > Blocks in your WordPress dashboard.
  • A GetResponse API key: created under Tools > Integrations and API > API in your GetResponse account.
  • The list token: shown in the settings of the list you want to use.

Steps

  1. Add the Form block to your page, click Design from Scratch and choose Simple Contact Form or Newsletter Form.
  1. Select the Form block (not a field inside it). In Action After Submit, open Options and choose GetResponse. You can keep Email selected as well.

  1. Open the GetResponse panel that appears and paste your key into API Key and the list token into List Token.

  1. Save the page, then submit the form once on the front end to test the connection.

How It Behaves

  • Each submission adds the contact to the list that matches the List Token.
  • The form sends the visitor’s email and name (the first Name Field). Other fields are not sent to this service.

Limitations

  • Pro only.
  • GetResponse may ask new contacts to confirm by email, depending on your list settings.

Troubleshooting

Contacts do not appear

Check the list token belongs to the list you are looking at, and check the list’s confirmation settings in GetResponse.

Related Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need before connecting GetResponse to a WordPress form?

Nexter Blocks Pro is required because the GetResponse action only works in Pro. You also need the Form block enabled under Nexter > Blocks in your WordPress dashboard, plus a GetResponse API key and the list token for the exact list you want to use. That setup matters because the connection sends submissions into one specific GetResponse list, not a generic inbox.

How do I connect a WordPress form to a GetResponse list?

The connection is made from the Form block, not from an individual field. In Action After Submit, choose GetResponse, keep Email selected if needed, then paste the API Key and List Token in the GetResponse panel. Nexter Blocks Pro handles the handoff, and a test submission on the front end confirms that the form is actually sending data.

What information does a WordPress form send to GetResponse?

The form sends the visitor’s email and the first Name Field only. Other fields are not sent to GetResponse, so extra form data stays outside that service. That limitation matters if you expected custom fields to appear in your list, because this setup is focused on basic contact capture rather than full profile syncing.

Why are contacts not showing up in GetResponse after form submission?

The most common issue is a mismatched list token or confirmation settings in GetResponse. The token has to belong to the same list you are checking, and new contacts may also need to confirm by email depending on that list’s settings. If submissions are working on the site but nothing appears in the list, those two checks usually explain it.

Does this work with simple contact forms and newsletter forms?

The tutorial uses either Simple Contact Form or Newsletter Form when adding the Form block, so both are valid starting points for this connection. That choice affects how you present the form on the page, but the GetResponse action itself is attached through Action After Submit. For layout details, the Form block guide covers the full Form block setup.

Should I use email confirmation for new GetResponse contacts?

GetResponse may ask new contacts to confirm by email depending on your list settings, so confirmation behavior is controlled on the GetResponse side. That can slow down visible list growth, but it also explains why a submitted form does not always mean an immediate confirmed contact. If you want to redirect users after submission, that is handled separately in Redirect users after form submission.
