Hi,

I am attempting to change a 'Message' text field to a text area on a shortcode form element part of the Enfold Wordpress theme. To get a better idea of what I mean please check this url:

http://www.headstudios.com.au/mailchimp-form-test/

As you can see this is a form that is linked to my Mailchimp list - it works perfect - except I would like the Message text field to be a text area. Since this shortcode is generated by a bunch of complex code in the Enfold theme I had asked them how this could be done - and you can see the question (and their answers) in the URL below:

https://kriesi.at/support/topic/make-message-text-area/

I am confused about the code that is recommended RE: apply_filters etc.

You can see the mailchimp.php code in the link below:
https://pastebin.com/bhszS5xw

I am confused about the advice - and I should mention that the link I had provided was to a page that is now removed - so the id of the form fields could be different - I have recreated the form since then.

Anyway I was wondering if anyone could clarify how I could apply their code to the real life example of the form here:

Any input would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I want to use MailChimp integration for Magento. But seeing some messages uncertain the whether the extension is working.

Some people said need to ensure cron jobs are running. Is it true? If it is, how do I check I have crob jobs running?
I am using Magento CE 1.9.3.3, MailChimp extension 1.1.11

I need to show loader when ajax calls in mailchimp.

My coding like,

<form action="Myactionname" method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" class="result" target="_blank" novalidate onsubmit="thirdpart();">
          <div class="mc-field-group">
            <!--<label for="mce-EMAIL" class="labelemail">Email Address <span class="asterisk">*</span> </label>-->
            <input type="email" value="" name="EMAIL" class="required email textinputbox" id="mce-EMAIL"
             placeholder="Email Address *" onfocus="this.placeholder=''" onblur="this.placeholder='Email Address *'">
            <input type="submit" value="Sign up" name="signup" id="mc-embedded-subscribe" class="btn_brd" >
          </div>
          <!-- real people should not fill this in and expect good things - do not remove this or risk form bot signups-->
          <div style="position: absolute; left: -5000px;" aria-hidden="true">
            <input type="text" name="b_bc66e7d3354ff8ce99f71a04d_3831086bec" tabindex="-1" value="">
          </div>
        </div>
        <div id="mce-responses" class="clear">
          <div class="response" id="mce-error-response" style="display:none"></div>
          <div class="response" id="mce-success-response" style="display:none"></div>
        </div>
       
      </form>

My form validate and submit showing error …

I have an xlsx file with 40,000 emails in column A that I want to import into a new Mailchimp list. In Mailchimp I've checked "Copy and past contacts from .xls or .xlsx file. Then I copied the A column to the clipboard in xlxs and pasted it to the "Paste subscriber" box in MailChimp. The data goes in but when I click Next I get the error "You must have an email address column to import a list."

So I inserted a row at the top of column A in xlsx and wrote "Email Address" there. Copied again to clipboard and pasted into MailChimp. Get same error as above.

Tried next copying the A column and pasting into Notepad++. Wrote "Email Address" above the first email, and copied from Notepad++ copied to clipboard. Selected "Import contacts from .csv or .txt file" in Mailchimp and pasted again. Still get the same error: "You must have an email address column to import a list."

So what is MailChimp looking for?

Thanks for any help

Hi all,
Yesterday, I had a user receive over 9000 emails in one hour - they where all newsletter style emails (including many from Mailchimp) in many different languages.  The scary thing was that they all looked like legit subscriptions - headers looked legit etc.  The user is hosted on exchange 2010 and it didn't affect any of his colleagues.  Neither watchguard nor Xeams picked up on it and how I eventually got it under control was to increase the spam weighting of subscribe/welcome/subscription etc and then have them quarantined.  
Apparently he hasn't subscribed to any newsletters but has anyone ever had this happen to them and how did it start?
Cheers
