 * Question then: It is required to have the pro version to list which newsletters
   and allow the user to select?
 * I see in the FAQ that pro has multiple forms for multiple lists, but what I am
   imagining and wondering about, is the form showing a list of say checkboxes or
   a multi-select drop down for multiple lists. Maybe I have a list that is a general
   newsletter, maybe one that is for some other mailing?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi there,
 * Yes, in the premium version you can select “Lists Choice” from the “Add MailChimp
   field” dropdown select which will generate the HTML for a list of checkboxes,
   allowing the user to select which list(s) to subscribe to.
 * This is also possible with the lite version but not without adding some custom
   code to your theme its `functions.php` file and some more to generate the correct
   list HTML.
 * Hope that helps!

 * Is there any resource information on how to do this somewhere? Sorry if I have
   missed that so far.

 * Adding them consists of multiple steps.
 * 1. Add HTML to your form where users can select the lists to subscribe to. The
   HTML should send the List ID’s to your server.
 *     ```
       <label><input type="checkbox" name="lists" value="af123b13" /> List 1</label>
       <label><input type="checkbox" name="lists" value="fa312b41" /> List 2</label>
       ```
   
 * _(You can find your List ID’s in your MailChimp list settings_
 * 2. Use the `mc4wp_lists` filter to use the posted list values as the lists to
   subscribe to.
 *     ```
       function myprefix_mc4wp_lists( $lists ) {
   
       	if( isset( $_POST['lists'] ) ) {
       		$lists = $_POST['lists'];
       	}
   
       	return $lists;
       }
   
       add_filter( 'mc4wp_lists', 'myprefix_mc4wp_lists' );
       ```
   
 * Hope that points you in the right direction.
