 * Hi,
 * Mailchimp and plugin MailChimp for WordPress Lite don’t connect.
 * My API key is correct, webhost said that CURL SSL is enabled, my website is retrieving
   WP updates and plugins. I have no firewall plugin (i have Better WP Security 
   plugin).
 * Can you help me?
 * Edit: On my localhost is working great. I have this problem on my live site.

 * Hi,
 * I have the same problem!
    And I want to know if there is any specific Port or
   URL that should be accessible on the server ?

 * Hi there,
 * [@vikingm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vikingm/), the problem is most
   likely in Better WP Security blocking requests. Are you able to get a connection
   when you disable that plugin? We can most likely configure a whitelist rule, 
   but disabling is the easiest way to confirm.
 * [@babak_izadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babak_izadi/), does the problem
   persist when you disable all other plugins (to test)? Does your webhost enable
   cURL SSL requests?
 * Thanks!

 * When I disable Better WP Security in I save API key I get this message:

 * [@vikingm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vikingm/) excuse me for asking
   my question through your post !
 * [@danny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danny/) I don’t have any special
   plugin on my website and also I have the copy of this website on another webhosting
   and everything works fine!
    this hosting company told me that they have cURL 
   SSL request enabled and asked me to give them the Port Number or URL to check
   the problem on the server!
 * Regards,
    Babak

 * I solved problem with warning message. But now nothing happens when I ‘save’ 
   API key. For about 20 seconds it’s trying to save and then nothing.
 * Edit: I disabled all plugins except this, and after I click ‘save’ it’s loading
   for about 20 seconds and then nothing happens.

 * Solved! My webhost made some changes in firewall.
 * Thanks for help!

 * Perfect, thanks for letting me know VIkingM.
 * Should you have a spare 30 seconds, I would really appreciate [a plugin review here on WordPress.org](http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/mailchimp-for-wp#postform)!
