Hey Simon!
Thanks for getting in touch. I’m happy to help. Once you have the plugin active on the site, the widget can be placed on a page in two different ways. This How To guide on the MailChimp site has a section near the bottom which describes how to set the widget up on a page: http://connect.mailchimp.com/how-to/81
Additionally, you can type the shortcode [mailchimpsf_form] wherever you’d like in a plain-text content area in your site to insert the widget directly into one of those content areas as well.
If we can help out with anything else, please let us know!

Hey Gabe.
thanks for the reply.
I finaly got it on the webpage when using the widget info inside the wp-admin.
I have a problem on this page:
http://www.bertman.nu/newsletter
how can I make all the text white as in the rest of my webpage and the background grey as the rest of my web?
there is only numbers and letters, why can I not pick the colors I woulk like to have?
Best
Simon
Hey Simon,
Thanks for getting in touch. The number and letter sequences being asked for there are standard Hex code numbers used to get an exact color shade. In this case, plain white would be FFFFFF and the grey color used for your background appears to be 333333. Entering those values should get the colors you want.
If you have any additional questions, please let us know!

thanks Gabe, there is one more question:
how to make the Header and Sub-header text white?
I can’t see where to choose any color, now it is black, and not look good…..
Hey Simon!
For the sub-header, in the updated plugin it should generally take on the same text coloring as the rest of the form. Are you seeing different behavior?
That said, you can set both the Header and the Sub-Header to white by finding your site’s style.css file in your WordPress installation, then adding these two lines:
.widget-title{color:#FFFFFF;}
#mc_subheader{color:#FFFFFF;}
That will color whatever Header and Sub-Header text you’ve created in the plugin white. If you have any other questions, let us know!

Hi Babe, sorry but how do I find this style.css file in my WordPress installation ?
Hey!
That file should be in your server under the wp-content directory, then your theme, in your server. The particular CSS file in this case appears to be /wp-content/themes/portfolium/style.css. If you can find that file to edit, you should be good to go!
