[SUBSCRIBE FORM] MailChimp Intergration

[kristijan95]

Hi everyone, it's me again

Aweber costs 19$/month which I find quite expensive so I will show you how to embed MailChimp which allows you to have up to 2,000 subscribers and 12,000 emails per month for free forever, so here we go:

First thing first register an account on MailChimp

Step 2) Go to your account on MailChimp and click Lists and then Create List, fill the gaps and choose how you'll be informed about subscribers and then hit Save

Step 3) When you done with creating List, on that page click SignUp Forms and select Embeded Forms

Step 4) In Embeded Forms Panel select Super Slim style from menu and put all like on photo


Step 5) Copy the code beneath and paste it in your Wordpress Panel>Customization>Subscribe Form
Step 6) We need to change some things in order to be more estetic on the site

Step 7) Put this in code after <!-- real people should not fill this in and expect good things...>

 <p>
      <small> Register now to get updates on promotions and coupons.</small>
</p>

or change text to whatever you want this is just sample

Step 8) Hit Save Settings and you're all set

It will look like this in Rembrandt theme



Happy Subscribing everyone!
Best Regards

Did you make the form width 450? Maybe you just made it a bit too big. I pretty much just copied exactly what he did above.

Yes, I made my form width 450 px. But then i decrease the form width to 360 px and there is no issue with my subscribe form. Thanks for your suggestion

 

[Ms. Entrepreneur]

Glad you got it all worked out! Till now I had just completely removed the subscribe code to avoid paying Aweber haha Thanks again Kristi!

Hi. Any idea how to activate single opt in? As i know and try. By doing this still using double optin.

Many thanks for the guidelines, was successful - appreciate it!
One question - any idea why the "enter your email" field and the Subscribe button appear a bit moved to the right (i.e. not aligned with the rest of the text - see snapshot)?
Is there any way to adjust it?

I had tried to make it, but my website crashed, it says that the website have unsecured code, I believe it related to my SSL certificate
suggestions?

there is a way to move it around the site, just adjust px of your form from I thing -5000 to lower levels

do you have any security installed on your store? I didn't had any problems like yours

Unfortunately, this method doesn't seem to work for the "Da Vinci" theme. When I copied the html code generated from MailChimp and pasted it onto the "subscribe form" editor, a particular code "amp;" will go missing by itself after I clicked on the "save settings" button. Anyone who has any form of success with the same theme using the above method, please let me know. Thank you.

I thave tried to install it using Rembrandt theme. I handled to fit it in the footer side but i think something is wrong. When i try to use the form and add an email address for subscription it redirects to mailchimp 404 page. Is there anybody figuring this out?
