 * Hi there,
 * I’m trying to paste the form action URL into the admin panel of the plug-in but
   the save changes button at the bottom of the page doesn’t seem to have any effect.
   If I navigate away from the page and come back all that is left is this code,
   which I never inputted in the first place:
 * <!– Begin MailChimp Signup Form –> <div id=

 * Hi Knightly22,
 * it sounds like the entire MailChimp code is pasted into the form action URL.
 * Could you send me an email through [http://codeleon.com/contact](http://codeleon.com/contact)
   so we can fix this together?

 * Hey Boris,
 * It was only that specific bit of code that was pasted into the box. But no problems!
   I deactivated and then reactivated the plug-in and that solved the issue.
 * Thanks for the great plug-in!

 * I’m having this issue. activated/deactivated. Copied the code – again – just 
   what was between the “”. And it still won’t save my preferences.
 * I’d appreciate any help you can provide.

 * Hi ngiantonio,
 * are you using the latest version of the plugin? If so, please try pasting the
   entire MailChimp HTML code into the field. Click on Save Changes.
 * It should extract the form action URL for you.
 * Let me know if it worked.
