MailChimp Newsletter Sidebox

[saplanet]

Not sure if this question fits here, I have installed the contrib, it works wonderfully well. (thank you swguy for the great contrib)

1. I have edited and remove the 'newsletter' url when logon in My Account (so that it doesn't show option for customers to edit, since it won't remove the subscription/or add to Mail Chimp list)

2. Disabled the 'unsubscribe' url - all newsletter activities should be managed in Mail Chimp now

3. Edited and updated the Privacy Policy as suggested by swguy in the readme file; to include a unsubscribe link (get from mail chimp setting) in the page - in place of the default unsubscribe url

Question..
How do I disallow the text/html option in the account creation page? This information also appears in account_edit page.

Appreciate any help.

You shouldn't do this.

is this compatible for v1.5

I have installed the Mail Chimp and followed all the instructions from as far as I can tell. The sidebox subscribe works but when making a new user I get an error when i hit submit. The error is below.


Email Error: Could not execute: /usr/sbin/sendmail

When you hit back from there the user has been created and you are logged in but. It seems the new user is getting signed up but I of course dont want to have this error page.
Any ideas?

@bkeaton - yes.
@sportrecovery - goto admin->configuration->e-mail options and choose an email option that works.

Thanks SWGuy, turns out the Mod was fine it was our host server playing up. both our shops as it turns out didnt get an order confiratoin for 5 days but on looking at the shop admin we had a heap of orders. I am awaiting their response as to what they did.

Hi Scott, I installed this and almost ready to go BUT I can't do the insertion of code on the "create an account" file because I'm using FEC and I don't find ANY line of code as stated on your installation instructions. I tried several words or phrases given by you but nothing.

Please advise where I'm supposed to insert the code.... (I can post here the file code if you need me to).

Please do as I have FEC also and can not seem to get this to work.
Thanks, Kim

FEC users - you're going to have to hire someone to do this work for you; I can't do this level of detailed integration with multiple mods for free on the forum.

Just wanted to say thanks for the great mod swguy, installed and working like a charm on my zc 1.5 and free mailchimp account :)
