SpeakOut! Pro

SpeakOut! Pro extends SpeakOut! Email Petitions for organizations, campaigns, and community websites that manage multiple petitions. It works with unlimited campaigns, each with a form on your WordPress site to collect signatures and send a petition message to a specified email address.

Set a recipient for each petition message

Choose the recipient email address and configure the message for each campaign. When a user submits the form, a copy goes to that address, such as a mayor or another intended recipient. The message is signed with the contact information supplied by the visitor. Submitters can select to receive a BCC copy of the email.

Review signatures and campaign progress

SpeakOut! Pro stores signatures in the WordPress database for review. Export them to CSV to work with the entries elsewhere. The extension provides export functionality; it does not provide an import function.

Set a signature goal to display a progress bar tracking the petition toward its target. The goal can also update automatically when a specified percentage of the goal is reached.

Set a closing date and sharing options

A petition can stop accepting signatures on a specified date, which suits time-limited campaigns, scheduled actions, or petitions that close at a defined stage.

After signing, visitors can share the petition page with their followers on Facebook or X, or use the email sharing option. SpeakOut! Pro also includes expanded integration with third-party mailing services for processes that include petition activity in broader email communications.

Configure and publish a campaign

1. Create a petition campaign and add its form to your WordPress site.
2. Specify the recipient email address and configure the petition message.
3. Allow submitters to provide contact information and optionally receive a BCC copy.
4. Set a signature goal, progress behavior, and closing date where appropriate.
5. Review stored signatures and export them to CSV for further analysis.
6. Use social and email sharing options to help visitors spread the petition.

Add SpeakOut! Pro to your WordPress site and configure the petition settings before publishing a campaign page. Create the form, set the recipient and campaign options, then test the submission flow to check that the petition email and available sharing choices fit your workflow.
