 * Hello!
    I was so happy to find this and would like to buy the full version, but
   when I add the Mailchimp shortcode to the popup, nothing happens. You can type
   in an email address, but when you press submit nothing happens.
 * Here is a test site that I have it on:

 * Thank you for any help.

 * I can’t see the popup there. Check your display rules.
    Also enable debug mode
   so I can see what’s wrong
 * Thanks

 * Hi There,
 * Having an issue with MailChimp as well.
    I noticed it’s very fussy about blank
   lines – it inserts <p> tags if there are any blank lines in the javascript.
 * Still getting an error in a weird spot – when adding text to a variable that 
   has html tags within it.
 * [http://goldenzonetrading.com](http://goldenzonetrading.com) popup is set for
   10 seconds

 * Was able to resolve the problem by escaping the <> html tag characters.
 * Still having a problem with CORS error within the popup that doesn’t happen when
   this form is used outside the popup.

 * You need to modify the form code to not use ajax. You can do that by doing by
   adding class spu-disable-ajax to the form :
    `<form action="http://goldenzonetrading.
   us8.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=46fede02d6dee220e4d09dc63&id=ebc9426ff3"
   method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form"
   class="spu-disable-ajax validate" target="_blank" novalidate="">`
 * Not sure what you mean by cors, if its a plugin you should probably contact them

 * Actually AJAX is required for this form to work correctly for this situation 
   so that’s not a good solution.
 * CORS – Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) – not allowing the MailChimp JavaScript
   to run on the web page. Odd that it works on the normal page but not in the popup
   window from this plugin.

 * Sorry – never mind that last statement – the CORS issue is for both situations
   now. More research required on my part.

 * You can’t use ajax with external urls, that’s why you need to remove ajax from
   the popup form
