   Is it possible to create a newsletter that dinamically takes my last 3 post? Or I should put them manually everytime?

   This is a features the plugin « Newsletter » has native and it’s really useful.

   Great article. Need help! Installed mailchimp subscriber form on my blog. I am getting notification the confirmation email is sent for double opt. Yet am not receiving the link and no emails are being added to the mailchimp list. Beyond frustrated! Any help appreciated. Seems to be a issue on many help forums.

   I have two different opt-in forms on my site, both connected to mail chimp. I have some subscribers going to mail chimp email list and some on wordpress. Any idea why this is happening?

   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.

   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?

   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!

     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…

     Répondre

     • 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!..

    I have a wordpress.com website with the Textbook theme.

      • 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?

      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.

18. Marisa Moon

    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.

      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.

    Répondre

    • 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.

    Répondre

    • 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.

    Répondre

    • 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.

    Hello,

    Great post!! Thank you!!

    I have a question before set it up. Will the email sent all the post are in the RSS feed or it will know which ones were sent before and it won’t send them?
    I have the doubt about if mailchimp will know which post were sent already and it doesn’t have to add them in the mail.

    Hope you can reply me.

    I have two different websites that I own and manage, and am thinking about creating two more.
    Do I need a Mailchimp account for each one? Or will one account do? The two that I own a very niche content oriented, and don’t drive a lot of traffic, but I want to implement a consistent email campaign to change that, by not letting visitors leave the site without at least subscribing, and then keeping in touch with them on a weekly, or monthly basis.

    So…Do I just need just one master account, and then separate my target recipients by website addresses? Or does each website need its own mailchimp account?

      You can create multiple email lists under one MailChimp account.

    Help! I am a total newbie trying to set up an e-mail responder via mailchimp with an RSS feed. I can follow your instructions until I get through the RSS info above. Then the instructions say to click NEXT in the bottom corner. There is no NEXT in any bottom corner. I have a « Save and Exit » drop down box at the right top of the screen, but the dropdown box takes me somewhere totally different than your tutorial. Can you please update your tutorial so I can follow it? Yours is the best tutorial I’ve found until this frustration & I’ve spent hours already trying to get past this step. Why is it what I see never matches the screen shots in tutorials?

    Thanks for this article, great info. I’ve been working with the templates in MailChimp and testing the WordPress RSS feature to generate an email to subscribers when I have a new post.

    Am I right to assume I’d have to always login to MailChimp and customize a different template if I want to show more post content than what the RSS description will display?

    I was using the Newsletter WP plugin and decided I’d better work on building a mail list and decided to install Mailchimp for WordPress. I just want to show more copy from my post when I generate the email to subscribers.

    Thanks in advance!

      You shouldn’t have this issue. Can you switch to a default theme for testing and then add the form to a text widget? If that does not work try removing all unnecessary fields from form, disable JavaScript.

      You can try reaching out to their support and see if there is something you can do. Otherwise you can always switch. We don’t think that learning curve will be a big issue.

      To Vicki, I am trying out Mailchimp at the moment, and it also went into the gmail promotions tab.

      Error: I tried copy and pasting as instructed and nothing shows. So I created a second text widget and put in some basic HTML to check it and the test text widget appeared fine. I also have a twitter widget working fine.

      Any idea why the mailchimp code fails? I used all default settings.

    with reference to follow new Posts using the JetPack plugin . Do we argument this with say MailChimp emails . Dow we need both features enabled on a blog. I can’t make up my mind whether I need both.

    Howdy,
    I think Mailchimp is pretty good. I have used it for awhile and have under 100 subscribers.

    I use the rrs feed to email feature.

    One thing I do not care for is I can not tell which Mailchimp email templates are responsive. It seems to make sense to send responsive email in today’s world. I wish Mailchimp would either make all the email templates responsive or at least categorize them.

    I also like the feature where you can have your email campaign automatically published to your Facebook page.

    Happy trails, cowboy Mike

    While MailChimp claims in their TOS that some affiliate marketing is permissible with their service, I have discovered that they will INSTANTLY and automatically shut down your account if you include a link in your email that they consider « spammy » — and they are the sole judge of what is spammy. I got my account locked for including a link to a product which I gave as an example of something I did not consider worth buying.

    I am planning to move to a different email service provider.

      Howard – That is a bit scary. Do they consider Amazon links spammy? I’m using Constant Contact and was thinking of changing to MailChimp, but maybe should reconsider. Who else are you looking at?
