   All of a sudden, only my featured photo shows in my mailchimp email campaign. No other photos in my article. Would that be a WordPress or mailchimp issue? I can’t seem to find help either way

     You would want to first go through MailChimp’s troubleshooting recommendations first to ensure it is not an issue from their end.

   Setting up Mailchimp correctly was quite difficult for me until I understood everything and set up the newsletter. Thanks for the guide.

   Is there a way to use an embedded form to allow users to update their newsletter preferences without them having to type in their email? If they’re logged into Wordpress, is there a way for the MailChimp form to already be prefilled with their email address and all they have to do is select the newsletters they wish to subscribe to and submit?

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     You would want to check with MailChimp for their current integration options.

   I would like to make accessible the monthly MailChimp newsletters from a non-profit’s website so subscribers can access past newsletters.
   Thank you for any help you can provide.

     You would need to reach out to MailChimp and they should be able to assist you with what tools they have available

   I’m trying to add an embedded form from Mail Chimp to my WordPress website for blog subscription, but unable to see where to paste the form code inside WordPress. The Text box as mentioned in this article doesn’t seem to be the right place.

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     You should be able to use a custom HTML widget now but other than that the method has not changed for embedding it on your site.

   Hello,
   Is it possible to use Mailchimp if I don’t have a domain?
   For example : myblog(.)wordpress(.)com

   Responder

     WordPress.com does allow you to use MailChimp currently.

   Thanks for your helpful articles. My challenge is how to make a newsletter that automatically updates my subscribers on new posts. How do I place latest blog posts in an automated mail using mailchimp?

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     It would depend on the newsletter tool you are using but there should be the option to set up an RSS campaign for what you’re wanting

   I’m really struggling with this tutorial. The “Adding MailChimp Email Signup Forms in WordPress” section looks like nothing I can find. There is nothing called, “lists page” anywhere.

     MailChimp changed lists to audience as well as a few other updates, we will be sure to look into updating this article when we are able.

    Hello,

    I am running a blog on wordpress.com with Rowling theme.

    I tried to add newsletter signup using Mailchimp following this guide, but once I put the copied Mailchimp’s standard (also superslim or naked) signup form code to Wordpress.com Sidebar text widget – half of the code comes up as text. Moreover, the subscribe button does not work and fields that should be filled up do not show up (only their “titles/description”.

    I consulted the previous comments, but none of the solutions seem to be working.

    HELP!

    Responder

    • Vivian

      I had the same issue at first. Then I found out I pasted the MailChimp’s standard text in the ‘Visual’ box instead of ‘text’ box. It’s a simple fix for me – just click ‘text’ and past the content in ‘text’ instead of visual.

    Can I only install plugins if I have a wordpress business plan? I have a personal plan and when I paste the code provided by mailchimp into a text widget on my blog sidebar, it just appears like code text on my sidebar instead of an email subscribe form. I don’t know why it’s happening, please help me.

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hello,

      If you are talking about WordPress.com, then yes you’ll need a Business Plan to install plugins. For self-hosted WordPress.org website, you just go a head and install any plugin you need. For details see our comparison of WordPress.com vs WordPress.org.

How do I delete the old blog identification? I don’t have anything other then mail chimp installed for this and I don’t see any other campaign for blog updates there that I can delete. please help.

    The only reservation I have about switching from FeedBurner is that if someone unsubscribes from the RSS driving posts, but they still want to get the newsletter (or vice versa), then there is no way to accommodate that (that I can tell).

    I would like my readers to have control over which content they get but not be completely committed to “all of the above” only.

    Responder

28. MartinR

    Many Thanks! I just followed these instructions to create a free MailChimp account, create a Subscribe form for posts on my self hosted WordPress site, and start a “campaign” which will email my latest post to subscribers. This is exactly what I was looking for. Again, thanks, great article!

      I followed all the instruction, but I am asked to register a custom email account with an organisation to be paid before I can continue. Where did I missed it?

      Responder

29. James Clewlow

    I followed all of the instructions correctly but when I copy and paste the link into the text widget in the sidebar it comes up as a massive link on my website.

    Please help!

    Responder

    • MartinR

      in that above writeup I typed:

      …Code button to add a “” at the beginning and a “” at end of the pasted link/block, SAVE, then remove the beginning and ending “” tags, SAVE again…

      But the “code” tags I typed in the 1st reply got interpreted as actual HTML – you would actually see the code tags without all the spaces – hope that makes sense…

      Responder

      • MartinR

        This editor keeps interpreting what I’m trying to type as actual code tags so I’ll just say:

        If you follow the first reply – what I did was add a beginning and ending code tag to surround the pasted link – via the Code button, SAVE, then remove them, SAVE again, all was well.

    Hi I followed these instructions and this morning I got the email but my latest blog post isn’t in it. It’s just the template but I though it would pull the latest blog posts into the email. Just curious if you have a resource that could help me on this. Mail chimp doesn’t seem to have anything on their website. Thanks!

    Hi, and thanks for a great article. I’m currently using Mailpoet but thinking of moving to Mailchimp. I want to use the RSS campaign feature, but I also want to include evergreen articles that I occasionally update, but don’t appear as new in the RSS feed. Is there any way to do this with Mailchimp? Or at least drop them manually into a template? Many thanks in advance

    After pasting the Mailchimp signup code on Wordpress ‘text’ widget, half of the text is showing And the form appears as a text, as in you cannot click anything and the space to enter your email address/name is invisible!..

      Responder

      • Ella

        Hi,

        When you paste the signup code, a part of it dictates the style of the form which might clash with the style of your page, is easy just omit/delete this part:

        #mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; }
        /* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.
        We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. */

        Hope it help,
        Ella

    Do you know of any plugins or methods to send the full post to MailChimp rather than the Excerpt. I have ‘Full Text’ rather than ‘Summary’ selected in Reading Settings, but it is still the excerpt that is going to MailChimp. Any ideas how to get the Full Post instead?

        Yes – it is a setting inside the MailChimp newsletter builder.

      The default MailChimp forms do not have a payment option. You should check out WPForms it comes with payment options like Stripe and PayPal and also supports MailChimp.

    I am trying to get mailchimp and wp on the same page, so to speak. I can setup a form to have people sign up for my updates through mailchimp with no problem. I can get people to sign up for my forum with no problem.

    Having people sign up for my site and add them to mailchimp at the same time, big problem. I just cannot seem to get that one down.

    I really want to use one form so that my visitors do not have to fill out two forms, one to have access to my forums and one to get on my mailing list.

    What am I missing? I have tried setting up the mailchimp for wp plugin with no success, I am using ultimate membership pro and have filled out the mailchimp info there with no success.

    So at this point I am pulling my hair out so any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    I’m new to this RSS Feed concept, but upon setting it up I began to wonder if the wordpress site will still be emailing my subscribers when a new post is published. I don’t want my subscribers getting two emails on the same post. Is there a way to disable the wordpress post emails so I can just use Mail Chimp?
    Another question I have is about the mail chimp campaign design. After adding the RSS Header and Items, I’m still left with a rather short description and excerpt of the post. Do I have to update the campaign with a photo from the particular blog post each time before it goes out (if I want photos in it)? I use a lot of photos in my blog post, so this RSS campaign will fall flat without the photo content. But what’s the point of this auto-sending feature if I have to go in and add the content again.
    Anyways, thank you for the info. I hope to find the answers, especially about the first question.

    • Jordan White

      Marisa,
      Did you figure out how to stop Wordpress from sending those automatic “new post” emails? I am having the same problem. Now that I have mailchimp, I don’t want my subscribers getting too emails.

    Great article and i looooove your site as I set up my new blog. I am planning to sign up for MailChimp. And although i know you recommend OptinMonster, I saw that Mailchimp also has a optin plug-in for Wordpress. Do you have any thoughts on it? I’m at the stage where I don’t want to have to pay for anything else and OptimMonster has a monthly fee. I see that as an upgrade opportunity.

    Responder

    • Marisa Moon

      I don’t remember many of the differences, but I ended up going with PopUp Ally which is a free wordpress plugin. I found it had more features than mail chimp was offering and, even though it had less than optin monster, it was free. Hope this helps! I think for us new bloggers, who don’t have thousands of hits a day, we shouldn’t worry about the “monster” plugins out there just yet unless we’re ready to pay for it.

      • Andrea

        Thank you so much! I’m looking for a free pop-up plugin too, so I’ll try the one you suggested first

    Good Tutorial. I have one problem though:

    I have the double opt-in option enabled but when clicking the opt in link in the email the subscription is not directly confirmed but the user has the prove he is human. How can I disable that?

    Many Thanks.

    Responder

    • Marisa Moon

      I had this same problem. I don’t think you can change it or disable it (according to mail chimp). This is what I wrote two subscribers who complained about not being able to confirm: After trying the subscription myself on several browsers, laptops, and mobile devices, I found out that the trouble is really when using a mobile device. Were you using a mobile device when you had trouble subscribing? In the screen shot attached it shows you that I cannot edit the “robot” test, so i am stuck with it. But the other image I attached is to help explain a few ways you might be able to overcome the issue. When you are asked to select images to prove you’re not a robot, the images can be blurry, they can also reappear once you’ve already clicked them, and you have to continue to click the photos even if new ones appear. Then, once you’ve clicked all of the photos that reappear (as you can see explained at the top and bottom of my photo), you click “verify”. But if you click “verify” before letting the photos run their course, then you will have to try again. If you want to skip the photographs all together, then you can click the little headphone icon that is to the left of “Verify”, and you will be taken to a screen where you can listen to people speak a sequence of numbers that you have to type out and submit. It might be easier!

    Hi!
    I used this article successfully to set up my RSS email campaign, but then it just stopped working. The feed URL appeared to be bad. I validated it using an RSS validator and it works, but Mail Chimp is still saying its not valid. Any ideas on why that might be? I checked for typos and syntax and just not finding the source of the issue.

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      We are not sure what could be causing this issue. Try disabling all your plugins and switching to a default theme. After that try to add your RSS in MailChimp. If the issue is revolved then this mean that a plugin or theme on your website is causing the issue. Alternately, you can also rechout to MailChimp support and see what they have to say.
