 * After installation and properly configuring the MC for WP plugin (regular sidebar
   form is working), the Top Bar plugin constantly gives me to “Oops” error. Any
   idea why this is happening?

 * Hey beef_wellington,
 * An issue like this mostly occurs when you have another mandatory field in your
   MailChimp.com list other than the email address.
 * Can you please check 2 things:
    1. Please go to “MailChimp for WP” page in WordPress
   backend and make sure the API says “connected”. 2. Please check the List details
   to see if there is any other mandatory field other than the email address. If
   there is, go to your MailChimp.com account and edit the field so it’s not mandatory.

 * The API is connected, and another form on the website (in a sidebar) is adding
   subscribers as it should. The email field is the only required field in the list.
 * Anything else I could check?
