Hello all I am wondering how to give subscribers access to an email preferences landing page - instead of only having the option to unsubscribe at the footer of each mailout. I have tried to make a landing page like this and put it in an iframe on a 3rd party site (with the mautic JS loading in the header) but it doesn’t work. I am guessing this functionality must exist. Maybe I should be using a form instead? Anyone have any ideas?

Hi @plato39, To create a preference center, you can follow the information available in the [Mautic Docs](https://docs.mautic.org/en/5.x/contacts/preference_center.html). The relevant tokens can be found [here](https://docs.mautic.org/en/5.x/configuration/variables.html#preference-center-landing-page-tokens). * * * How to create an email preference page: 1. **Create a landing page** : Name it “Preference Center” for example. 2. **Set as preference center page** : In the landing page settings, activate the “Set as preference center page” option. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/mautic/original/2X/9/970fab1075fb43810b047423b3d5a2cb745562d9.png) 3. **Choose and edit a template** : Select a landing page template and customize it. Edit the text and add the desired variables. 4. **Save and preview** : Save the page and preview it. You should see the preferences page with the included variables. Hope this information helps you! Best regards, Ricardo ---

Hi @ricfreire Thanks for your advice. I am actually already doing this - but what I am trying to achieve is to have the preferences page exist on a webpage, so that a subscriber can be logged into the website and visit the page to adjust their newletter subscription preferences. I have managed to make it work with an embedded mautic form where the email address is added in a hidden field via an email placeholder value (provided by the 3rd party website). But with this all the user can do is either subscribe or unsubscribe to everything - with the form passing a boolean value to a custom field - then triggering a campaign to enable or disable the email channel. I guess I could create custom fields for subscription status for each segment and use the above technique - but this feels like the wrong way to go about this, especially since I know that Mautic provides a preference page for this. It seems the preference page can only be accessed from mailout unsubscribe links.
