In your bottom.tpl code where you want the sign up box.
Also, have you tried doing something as simple as adding a block in your footer? I haven’t tried it yet, but if you set up the block like the image below than it might work.
If you post more about what you want maybe we’ll have a better idea of how to help.
[quote name=‘brandonvd’]Well, can you put together a screen shot or some other type of image that shows what you want?
The example I gave was for a block, but since you want it in the footer, the coding might be more straight forward.
One thing that you could try is just to have something like:
<br />
{include file="{$config.skin_path}/addons/news_and_emails/blocks/subscribe.tpl"}<br />
```<br />
<br />
In your bottom.tpl code where you want the sign up box.<br />

Including the file in the bottom.tpl does not work in version 2.1.2 as the code has changes.<br />
<br />
Simply, what I'm trying to do have the newsletter signup in the bottom.tpl see this image. <br />

Yea that's how I'm going to do it if I can't figure this thing out.<br />
<br />
thanks again for your help :)
There is probably an override hook for the footer (bottom.tpl) for some addon or my_changes change. An “override” will override any previous info, even other overrides…

The problem is that moving the newsletter signup code seems to be custom made to be used in blocks and moving this code to any place other then a block makes it inoperable.
Suggest you do it as an override (or post) in the news_and_emails addon. I.e. skins//customer/addons/news_and_emails/hooks/index/bottom.override.tpl. But if I recall, the whole listing is dependent upon an {if $mailingLists} which needs to be set in a controller first.
Not sure this will work for everyone but I created an HTML block in the footer and used the code below. Worked like a charm. Replace folder_to_store with the folder your store is in. This assumes you only have one newsletter and that you always want to send newsletters in HTML.
