MailChimp Newsletter Sidebox

[beep]

Hello,
great mod!
Does anyone know how to put the subscribe form in the header instead of in a sidebox?

Those mischevious chimps are up to their usual tricks. Please do NOT update to MailChimp API 1.3 on your own; Newsletter Discount AND MailChimp Integration will need updates first. When you do update, both modules need to be updated at the same time; API 1.3 contains breaking changes (wrt existing code).

The MailChimp integration has been updated to MailChimp API 1.3.

Hi, this is a great mod thank you for your continued support as well. I was wondering if it's possible to tweak the layout of the form. I would like to have just the "Email Address" heading, text box and submit button visible. I'm hoping to run it either on the top or bottom of my site. I'm tweaking the css properties to achieve this with a side box. I' not sure if there's a better way but any help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Try moving it to includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_header.php

Thank you for the suggestion swguy but I don't see any change at all when I place it there.

Look at what your embed code is

<!-- Begin MailChimp Signup Form -->
<link href="http://cdn-images.mailchimp.com/embedcode/slim-081711.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<style type="text/css">
#mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; }
/* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.
We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. */
</style>
<div id="mc_embed_signup">
<form action="http://BLAH.us5.list-manage.com/subscribe/post


u=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&amp;id=xxxxxxxxx"



method="post"

Took me a few minutes to find it. :)

ahem, have problem with the sidebox working fine but the create account form does not. Nothing is getting to mail chimp: The mailchimp log file says Unable to load listSubscribe()!
Code=250
Msg=FNAME must be provided - Please enter a value

I could have sworn I did this correctly. What in the world did I screw up?

Has anyone figured out how to add a join groups checkbox? I am working on it, but could sure use some help...

(Am happy to hire it out too...)

Thanks!
