Just to clarify, the current form I am still using on my site now is here http://cozamia.com/index.htm – the content on this page is whats being displayed in the mailchimp form used on my new wordpress site
after clicking subscribe, http://cozamia.com/pages/about/
Hi Urudrew,
Thanks for hopping in the forum! I was able to replicate the issue with the old site being embedded above the sign up form. Normally, with the plugin when hitting subscribe we will insert a success or error message above the form. On your site, it’s seems to be inserting the content of the old site above the form instead. So there is something on your site that is affecting the javascript we use to insert that message.
To see what’s going on here, we need a little more information. How are these two sites connected? Can you try to deactivate any other plugins in wordpress, then test submitting the form? This can help narrow down the issue.
Thanks,

Thank you for looking into it. I’m assuming the fact that both of these sites are in the same directory may be part of the problem? Could it be that when I take down the old site and that form is gone…the form will work ok on the new site? Since it won’t have any reference to that home page where its pulling this content from? Just didn’t understand why it would do that in the first place.
Hey urudrew,
We’ve taken a deeper look here to see what might be going on and so far haven’t been able to come to any firm conclusions. The route to take here may be to start trying to take steps to isolate any possible conflicts: other plugins and the theme itself.
Trying to disable any other plugins you have, one at a time, then trying the plugin each time to see if behavior changes, would help see if something is somehow intercepting the success message and inserting that external code. If plugins don’t seem to make an impact, the next thing to try would be seeing if you could toggle another theme to be active and test the plugin again.
If you can try these things for us and report back, that may help determine what’s going on. It seems like something in the site is injecting the page’s HTML to where our success message is. Doing a lot of testing to find the culprit seems like the key here.
