I just used myiframe modules and embedded the links to the appropriate pages. In fact I used 3 as long as you rename them before uploading. 1 has subscribe page.2 has unsubscribe page. 3 has admin login. Then used multimenu to display links on page. works great. I then spent a little time making phplist blend into the web site.

Lets leave the Iframe thing for now
The answere was discussed a lot in the past, please search b4 you post.

The answere is more or less "no" due to the messy code of PHPlists and the fact that it'll be easyer to do a mailinglist module from screach...

PHPlists is a great app, but it's code is kinda messy and not so OO, with a lot of untranslated lang vars "here and there" ... It's still the best around, but "on it's own" ... not as a module.

At this point there is nothing else available. Whether you like the functionality of iframes or not, whether you like the way phplist is coded or not. It still works. He needs a solution now. This is an acceptable work around, FOR NOW.

First of all - there is a solution (a XOOPS module solution) - which called Xmail - try to search the forums and/or XOOPS Brasil (or contact the module auther - Giba which is always glad to help).
the only issue I got with Xmail is it's incomplete English translation ( our SEO manager translated it for me, I simply can't find the time to embed it in the module yet)

About PhpLists:
Putting it in an Iframe and acting as if it turnes it to XOOPS module is kinda funny - simply "use it as is" and don't put a XOOPS costume on it ... "it'll feel better in it's own clothes"

Now - don't get me wrong - I think PhpLists function great, It's my mailinglist of choice, simply the code is a bit of a mess ... and it don't fit turning it into a XOOPS module.
