Hi,
​
I have a Chronoform with a couple of simple fields (Firstname, Lastname, Company, Phone, Email, Subject, Message and 2 invisible fields, Language and Source) and I would like to add a checkbox to let people opt-in to our newsletter. Those are the fields I want to send to mailchimp: Firstname, Lastname, Company, Phone, Email, Language and Source. Any suggestions on how to accomplish that?
​
Thanks.

Hi Chronologist,
​
Use healyhatman has some demo forms that you can buy - see his post here
​
Or you can code it yourself using the cURL action.

I also have an easier-to-use Mailchimp Subscribe Action that lets you do it without code and also lets you send custom fields to your list.

If you want to code it all yourself, you'll have to do it in PHP because I just don't think the cURL action in Chronoforms can handle the variables you need. You could start with https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41859729/mailchimp-subscribe-using-api-v3-0

@GreyHead and @healyhatman Thanks for the quick replies. I'm using Chronoforms V5 and the Mailchimp Subscribe Action is only compatible with Chronoforms V6, since I'm using an early Joomla 3.0 version, I don't want to run on any incompatible issues so I'll try to implement the code myself for now.

Thanks.

Sure thing. It's definitely possible, but you will need to use PHP.
