Email and SMS marketing for WordPress by DailyStory

DailyStory is a marketing automation platform for email, text messaging (SMS), push notifications, popups, web forms and landing pages. This plugin connects your WordPress site to your DailyStory account, so you can capture leads on your site and follow up with them automatically.

Setup takes about a minute. Click Connect to DailyStory, sign in, and choose your account. The plugin installs your tracking code for you, with nothing to copy and paste.

Watch the WordPress plugin in action:

What the plugin adds to your site

• Visitor tracking. DailyStory’s tracking code goes on every page, so you can see which pages contacts visit and start automations from that activity.
• Popups. Popups you design in DailyStory appear on your site automatically, and you choose where they show. Use a shortcode to show one on a specific page, or when a visitor is about to leave.
• Web forms. Embed DailyStory forms in any post, page or widget. Submissions go straight into DailyStory as contacts and can start an automation.
• Signed-in visitors. When a logged-in user visits, the plugin tells DailyStory who they are, so their activity is tied to their contact record.

WooCommerce

When WooCommerce is active, the plugin also sends store activity to DailyStory:

• Product views, for browse-abandonment emails and texts
• Add to cart and cart contents, for abandoned-cart automations, including shoppers who never reached checkout
• Completed orders, recorded as a conversion so revenue is credited to the email, text or popup that drove it

Store tracking is on by default and can be turned off on the settings page. The plugin is compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).

Shortcodes

• [ds-webform id="FORM_ID"] embeds a DailyStory web form. Add redirect_url="https://..." to send people to a page after they submit.
• [ds-popup id="POPUP_ID"] shows a popup when the page loads.
• [ds-exitintent id="POPUP_ID"] shows a popup when a visitor is about to leave the page.

You’ll find each form’s and popup’s ID in DailyStory.

External services

This plugin connects your site to DailyStory, a third-party service. Data is sent only after you connect an account or enter a Site ID. DailyStory’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy apply.

• DailyStory tracking code. Loaded on every front-end page from your account’s data center (for example us-1.dailystory.com). It records the pages visitors view, using a DailyStory cookie. For logged-in users it also sends their email address, first and last name, and (with WooCommerce) billing phone number. With WooCommerce it also sends product views, cart contents, and completed orders (order number, total, currency and items).
• DailyStory web forms. The [ds-webform] shortcode loads the form from forms.dailystory.com. The form’s scripts and styles load from pages.dailystory.com, forms.dailystory.com, cdnjs.cloudflare.com and cdn.jsdelivr.net (the phone number input). Visitors’ form entries go to DailyStory.
• Connecting your account. Connect to DailyStory uses app.dailystory.com. The plugin sends your site’s name, address and settings-page address so DailyStory can recognize your site. It receives your account name, Site ID and Site URL. Once a day it checks with DailyStory that the connection is still active.
• Site ID check. When you save a Site ID, the plugin asks your DailyStory data center whether that Site ID exists.

You are responsible for telling your visitors about this tracking, for example in your privacy policy or cookie notice.
