G'day there!
I'm updating a website in J3.3.6 using Gantry template, latest version. I've been given the submit button code for Mailchimp.
Gantry won't display the submit button but Protostar will. When I change template to Protostar the submit button works fine, exactly as expected.
So the best thing is to build a Chronoforms Mailchimp Submit button. I bought the tutorial and followed the instructions for the first method which exactly what I want and the result matches the Mailchimp version.
However, the Mailchimp code which I was given is just slightly different to that given in the tutorial. I've fixed my code up as best I can and it must be nearly right because although the submit button goes to the account in Mailchimp, it delivers a different response form, likely a form the client made along the learning path.
This form is the proposed newsletter template with an error message and a whole lot more fields to be filled in, starting with Email Address, First Name, Last Name and a whole lot of other stuff.
The code in the supplied Mailchimp form is:
<form action="//xxx.xx7.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=long number;id=short number" method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" class="validate" target="_blank" novalidate>
You'll see the http: is missing but that doesn't seem to matter either way.
In your example code you have no quote marl before the code but have the quote mark after the short number. I've all combinations of this.
Do you think I can fix this by getting the correct part of the code and if so, would you please suggest what it should be.
Otherwise I'll need to get the client to revisit the Mailchimp account and have another go at it. He may be just a little over extended already.
Note: I've been trying my Mailchimp form in Protostar so the templatre shouldn't be the trouble.
Thanks,
Laurie.
