I have mailchimp call from API.

mailchimp issue

1 Comment

We are receiving queries from website to our mailbox which include the following in the body of the email:

First Name:
Last Name:
Email Address:
Telephone:
Occupation:
Comment:
CAP Code:
IDS Code:
Vehicle:
P11D:
List Price:

We are looking for a way to extract at least email addresses but if we could do First and Last Names and any other data that would be awesome. We would like to then use it with MailChimp so probably csv would be best format.

What would be the best way to accomplish that? Macro? I found macro for email addresses only and not sure how to extend it.

Any ideas appreciated.

Regards,

I'm using Access 2K... but may soon be upgrading to Access 2016 or Office 365 so please do not let my current platform restrict your responses.
Obviously a solution that works with A2K is preferred.

My customer list now has more than 30,000 business email addresses. These are all addresses were used to place orders, so at some point we know that all of the addresses were valid.

I would like to start a Mailchimp mailing campaign so I need a way to clean the list before attempting a mailing. Can anyone recommend some code or an Access plug in.. or any other solution that can become part of my Access application... that will allow some sort of programmatic testing to mark hard, or possibly soft, bounces?

If not, any recommendations for a cleaning service would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Does anyone know of a wordpress plugin that works like this? http://donateri.org - the client wants something like that, and also: Ideally it would integrate with mailchimp and can be set up to send a reminder of the pickup the day before.

If there is no such thing, where could we go to have it developed?

Hi,

I have a form here: headstudios.com.au/hsfast at the bottom - which is an ajax form. It is linked to my Mailchimp and I am trying to make the text field a text area for the 'Message' field (which would involve modifying the theme files to some extent).

My question is - how can I find the jQuery that gets fired when the form is submitted? Preferrably I would like to do this with Firefox - I have been doing some reading about the debugger but what I would ideally like is to click on the Submit button and see what code gets triggered.

Any input would be much appreciated (and if you could just tell me where the code is that would be great too).

Thanks

I just received this notification from MailChimp.

We strongly encourage any developers who are using the MailChimp API to ensure that their software supports negotiating TLS 1.2 connections, and to coordinate with their system administrators to update software to take advantage of newer TLS versions. In addition, we recommend proactively switching over to TLS 1.2 when communicating with MailChimp’s API by modifying your API client software to enforce TLS 1.2 negotiation.

I have written some code in PHP that makes an API call to MailChimp. I'm not sure how to tell or know if I am using TLS 1.2 to communicate with their API.

How does one make sure you are or find out what protocol you are using?

Is there a way to create a list in MailChimp and have subscribers subscribe to it by sending an email to a particular address? Similar to an old "listserve" list in which a person could subscribe by sending an email to listname-subscribe@domain.com.

Thank you.

Does anyone know of, or have an evaluation of the various mailing services out there. Some of the services seem useful but expensive. Some don't even have a phone number to speak to a marketing or support rep! Gotta reach out by email if you need help. (Scary if you're having a critical deadline.)

I'm emailing about 5,000 messages a month (our database consists of 3,000 subscribers) for a government agency notifying constituents of policy changes and software upgrades. So I'm not selling any product where I need payment transactions.

Please provide links to any articles, blogs which evaluate these types of services or blogs/sites which discuss these types of services. When I google, I get link farms and other oddities popping up in search results.

Hello,

Here's what I'm trying to achieve...

I want to create a register of people whom are willing to volunteer to a specific community-based organisation, and to hold details of the skills/equipment/experience/expertise that they are willing to volunteer. For the people who have already shown an interest, all I have currently is a list of email addresses. What I would need to do is to send out via email some sort of form/survey, asking to tick/untick many different boxes stating what they can do to help. Either this of just send out a link, and have the users log in, but I realise that this would then add complexity with passwords etc.

The data will not be available to the public, but designated people should have access to the system in order to run some sort of report on, for example, all the people who have book-keeping experience, or all the people living in a specific area that can lend a minibus, or a list of people who can help with marketing etc.

I would also need for the data to be updated annually, so an user's previous answers would need to be made available to them somehow, either by sending them it via email, or directing them to log in somewhere.

As this is a volunteer-based project, there will be no funds available. I'm guessing that I won't be able to achieve all of the above without parting with some money, but what's the nearest I can get to it for free, or for a minimal expense?

Thanks for any ideas you may have.

As a newbie I rented a winserver2016 vps and dezigned a wordpress site on it. The site is simple wit 8 pages, 2 mailchimp forms, some picures and two youtube embedded links.
Now I have 2 options:
a) hosting my site on a hosting server with CentOS servers (Versio)
b) keeping the winserver2016 at TransIP and keep the site running on it

I have insufficiënt knowledge about securing a CentOS server and would be happy working within a Microsoft en ironment which I am familiar with.
Mail will be done by hosted mailservers of Versio or TransIP

I need the sit to be stable and fast and would like to know how many visits a month can be served by both options without major delay (less than 1 sec for loadi g a page is required)
The wordpress theme is generated press with 4-6 plugins for mailchimp, security and youtube.

Any advise will be apreciated highly!!

Hi Experts,

I have a client that did a mail blast using mailchimp and says that those emails went to Junk or Promo folders.

If I was to do the blast using PHP and loop one by one email, would this be avoided?

Thanks,

Why doesn't servers.mscv.net have any SPF record, so include:servers.mscv.net will just break my SPF record.

Dear Experts

Our digital agency said email marketing will be effective that is mails getting delivered to inbox or promotional tab is assured if the complete mail is with only one image file (png file) without any text in the email body, full image in the email body, according to them by doing this google algorithm will not identify this as it is image hence mails will not be spam and assured inbox delivery or promotional tab. Please suggest is this correct in reality. thanks in advance

Dear Experts

I have been told by few that even if we have good list that is opted in contacts if we use email marketing tool like mail chimp, campaign monitor etc and engage with customers about our new product offerings still the mail will deliver to spam. I am not accepting this but they say such mails will either go to spam or they go to promotional emails category. please suggest is this how it works. thanks in advance

Hi

One of the staff use mail chimp and sends out the news letters through mail chimp campaign.
When the news letter is viewed in outlook 2013 it looks ok, but if I view through OWA 2007, the formatting is all over the place. Please let me know how to trouble shoot this.
Will there be any settings in exchange, that I need to enable or disable. OR will this be something that needs to be done in mailchimp.

Thanks and any help would be great.

There is no MailChimp 'Content' heading in design mode, along with 'Design' and 'Comments' which do exist.

The 'Content' pane is required to access Content Blocks in the design mode.

This URL - http://kb.mailchimp.com/campaigns/content-blocks/about-content-blocks - lists the Content Block Types which can be dragged into the design area.

I need a text block to create image with wrapped text

I am using free version of MailChimp

RSS FEED - PROPERLY FORMATTED URL

One of our RSS feed URL's has been https://neighborsofchampaign.com/feed?cat=-4 originally set to pull our General News feed from a Wordpress site. These RSS feeds are being used with MailChimp campaigns.

Other specific Wordpress categories are formatted https://www.neighborsofchampaign.com/?cat=210&feed=rss2

Questions:
1. What is the -4 value effect on the RSS feed? Note: the actual category ID for General News is 3 in our case.
2. Is the domain/?cat=xxx&feed=rss2 the formal way to format rev 2 of RSS?

MAILCHIMP SUBSCRIPTION LINK

I am the designated admin for multiple MailChimp accounts. Recently noticed one of our subscription links for a production site, seems to have one of my development domain names within the URL.

Our production site for our Calendar subscriptions is https://calendar.neighborsofchampaign.com

The MailChimp subscription form link is:
http://etcil.us13.list-manage2.com/subscribe is the URL in question.

Odd thing is:
"etcil" happens to be one of my development domains.

The subscription form does its job, but has me concerned should the time come where my development site become unavailable. This does not seem like a coincidence and has me bugged :) Looking for help back tracking to understand what the connection is?

Hi
Can anyone help here? I found a user trying this recently, thus uploading client addresses to it for mailing. We blocked it as we have an internal solution.
Where is the data stored? Would anyone else use this for corporate mass email marketing?

Our company uses mailchimp to send out company emails. Because of security in outlook 2013/2016, they have to click the "click here to download pictures" link to download the images. I have a list of mail servers that mailchimp uses and was wondering if there is a way in exchange 2013 to add these to a whitelist and then make it prevent the users from getting this message. I understand I can turn the feature off using group policy, however, I would rather only allow it off for certain mail senders. Is this possible?

Thanks
