Hey cri8bat,
Thanks for getting in touch with us for assistance. I’m happy to help out, though it might be helpful to get a better idea of exactly how you want the form to look on the site once it’s in place.
If you modify your header.php file, you should be able to head to the <header> section of the file and, right before the header closing </header> tag, insert the following:
<div id=headerform>
<?php mailchimpSF_signup_form(); ?></div>
That would insert the form up top, overlapping with your header image. Once that’s in place, you would then add the following line to your theme’s CSS file:
#headerform{float:right;}
This results in getting the form to float to the right, in-line with your site’s header, though the navigation bar would end up displaying further down the page after the bottom of the form.
If that isn’t quite what you’re looking to do, please feel free to describe a bit more what you’d like it to look like. We’ll be glad to help more!

hi
thanks for quick reply.
I done exactly what you told me but it did not work, here is a preview how it looks when I edit the header.php and styless.css or editor-styless.css

If is it possible I would like to add an image next (of the left) of the mail subscribe form. An PDF file snapshot.
waiting for your reply
Hi cri8bat,
Can you confirm the plugin you’re using? This forum is really geared towards supporting the plugin located the plugin located here: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mailchimp
Looking at your site’s code, it appears there’s another wordpress plugin installed. The instructions that Gabe sent earlier are for adding the plugin I mentioned above to the site. That shortcode wouldn’t work with another plugin.
If you’re using the MailChimp plugin, can you add the shortcode back to the page, and leave it live. This will make it easier for us to troubleshoot why it isn’t displaying correctly. Also when adding the code, it’s good to make sure there aren’t any open tags and it’s added just as Gabe explained.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Didn’t work for me neither.
Following error apears on my site:
“Fatal error: Call to undefined function mailchimpsf_signup_form() in ….mise-en-place.org/wp-content/themes/munditia/header.php on line 141”
Hey Ellipa,
Thanks for hopping in the forum. In order to help out here, we’ll need a bit more information to confirm this is the same issue or something similar. We definitely want to look into this as best we can. Additionally, because this thread is older, can you please start a new thread with your response so we can track your issue separately?
We’ll be glad to dig in more once you start that new thread. In the new thread, send us the version of the plugin you’re using. Also can you send us the exact code that being added to your header.php file?
We look forward to hearing from you!

I need help in getting an image next to the mailchimp form. I would like them to be side-by-side but cannot figure it out. Any help here would be appreciated.
Hey there ContentVia,
Thanks for posting. It sounds like one option for you could be to use the shortcode in a table row with 2 columns, with the other cell in the row containing your image. Here’s some super basic example code you could use to customize on your site.
<table>
<tr>
<td><img src="http://www.domain.com/yourimageurl"></td>
<td>[mailchimpsf_form]</td>
</tr>
</table>
Here’s a great resource on HTML tables if you need it: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp
Hopefully this gets you going in the right direction!
