Never mind. Somehow my browser must have been caching something. I tried from a different computer and now it works fine.
Hi there,
Glad it’s working now, marking this as resolved!
I did take a look at your page and noticed you didn’t prefix your fields with mc4wp-. In order to send additional fields (besides FNAME, LNAME, NAME or EMAIL) to MailChimp you should prefix them with mc4wp- so the plugin knows to send the fields.
Please have a look at the FAQ or this post for info on how to send additional fields from CF7 to MailChimp.
In short, simply prefix the CF7 field with mc4wp- and make sure the field name matches the “merge tag” of the field in your MailChimp list.
Example CF7 mark-up for a MailChimp field named PHONE
[text* mc4wp-PHONE]
Hope that helps!
Well, one last question about this then- I prefixed the PHONE field with mc4wp- and when it began to work, took that out again as an experiment- and it still worked. It sounds like you are saying that it should not work without mc4wp-.
I just did experimenting, and I have found that the PHONE field works with or without mc4wp- prepended. So maybe you forgot that you support it natively or something 🙂
But, it doesn’t work either way if I’ve hidden the field in Mail Chimp. Which makes sense but it kinda sucks because I didn’t want the phone field to show up on the Facebook signup form, only on the web site’s contact form. Oh well. I required the phone in CF7, but not in MailChimp so people can leave it out on Facebook if they want.
