Magento - Create a CMS page for new customers to sign up - forms

I need to create a page in Magento 1.6.2 with a form to sign up for an account.
However I am not being given access to any of the sites files, so I need to be able to do it purely through the backend.
Probably with a CMS Page and getting template files, using {{block type=""}} (It's been a while since I've worked with Magento so I've forgotten a bit)
Does anyone know how I can achieve this, is it even possible?

This will work in 1.6.2 and 1.7.0.2
{{block type ="customer/form_login" template="persistent/customer/form/login.phtml" }}

Magento 2 - Add Footer Newsletter Signup to Content Block in CMS

I need to move the Newsletter Signup from the footer into a Content Block I've created in the backend of my Magento 2.1.3 installation.
In Magento 1 you could use the code below but this appears to be no longer the case using Magento 2
{{block type="newsletter/subscribe" name="left.newsletter" template="newsletter/subscribe.phtml"}}
Was wondering if anyone had a solution that could help. The site I'm developing is china.testdev.tech and the newsletter signup needs to go into the blue box in the middle of the homepage content.
Thanks in advance.

In magento-2 To call the particular phtml file, You need to used this code.
{{block class="Magento\Newsletter\Block\Subscribe" name="home.form.subscribe" template="Magento_Newsletter::subscribe.phtml"}}

Creating a form in confluence

I can create forms via templates with no problem. I found a plugin (create-page) from Adaptavist that allows you to create pages from a template. When a user clicks the create-page macro link it creates/saves the page from the template without allowing the user to change the fields.
I want the create-page macro to allow the user to fill in the form fields before saving the new page.
Is there a way to do this with this macro or perhaps there's another way of doing this?
You can try out ConfiForms plugin for Confluence. Quite easy to use.
The form-mail macro from Adaptavist was the answer. It allows you to create email forms inside your pages. Mail form NG plugin is free to use up to version 3.03 for Confluence up to version 5.3.4

Suggest idea for creating microsite in Joomla 1.5

I am having a site as http://www.test.com running in Joomla 1.5 . We are planning to have a microsite like
http://www.sub.test.com which has to have separate homepage with different contents .
Is that is possible with the following idea
Making a export of all the tables in my joomla and replacing jos with suband again importing them into the same Joomla database.
Writing a PHP script of identifying whether the Url tat i have entered in the browser is
http://www.test.com OR
http://www.sub.test.com
If test.com, then the $dbprefix would be jos OR if sub.test.com then the $dbprefix would be sub.
Will the above idea for creating a microsite is the correct one.
Just as another option, you could contain both sites in the exact same instance with a different template assigned to the micro site.
Set up a content category for the micro site, detect the request URL (most likely in the WebServer - best location, or in a DNS setting with a forward URL)
Assign all content items in the category with the new Template.
We regularly do this for a site that wants a blog site alongside the main website, but want a different look and feel.
