 * I can’t connect to Mailchimp. This is the error I receive, ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT.
   At one point, I was in Mailchimp and changed my user name. I don’t know if this
   was the start of the problem or not. I did go back and change it to the original
   user name, but I was still having the problem. I tried deleting and then installing
   this plug-in, but the first option I receive is to connect to MailChimp, and 
   this is the error I receive. No one can sign in to my website, which means they
   cannot purchase. This is day two of my site being down. I have very little code
   experience, which is one of the reasons I chose this plug-in, because knowledge
   of code did not seem to be necessary. Please help! I’m losing money every day.
   
   Thanks, Georgene

 * I used the code [mailchimpsf_form], and it worked! Finally found the info at 
   MailChimp. Thanks any way.

 * Hi there jorjeen,
 * I have a message about the ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT directly from MailChimp tech
   support:

 * Thanks for your patience, and I’ll be posting again once I get the all-clear.
 * In the meantime, the next best option is to use the embed form code directly 
   from your MailChimp account:

 * Issues with the socialize-this domain have been resolved and users of this plugin
   should now be able to reconnect without any timeout errors.
 * Thanks for your patience and apologies for any inconvenience which may have occurred
   while the issue was occurring.

 * I need help from SOMEONE out there. You see, a day ago I installed WordPress 
   and started to build a website…triofecta.comli.com. I was able to start customizing
   it and designing it and I would go out of it and come back to it with no problem.
   This morning when I tried to access it I would get the “This Webpage is Not Available
   ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT”message. I was able to get it on my mobile phone, then
   I wasn’t, then I was, now I’m not able to access it on my phone…and I can’t access
   it on my laptop or any other computer…can someone please help me?
