Hi Patrick,

Sorry for the late reply, this one slipped through our attention. It is not possible to specify the add/overwrite behaviour per grouping / field as they work on a per-call (API call) basis.

Changing the implementation would probably fix this quite easily though. Two quick options come to mind.

1. Assume the default group when no field value is given. Then just update whenever a value IS given. You could use “list segments” (in MailChimp) for this, for example.

2. Use a filter in PHP on the mc4wp_form_merge_vars filter and unset the groupings data if it is at the default value.

Does that help? If not, let me know please!

I just tested your form and I’m being redirected to the following URL.

If you look closely, you’ll see a few weird characters at the end of this URL. Please check your “redirect to this url” setting for characters or whitespace at the end of the setting and then re-save your form.

That should get rid of this issue. 🙂

Hope that helps. If not, let me know!

Hi there,

A lot of this depends on your theme styles but the following should get you somewhat close.

.mc4wp-form input[type="email"] {
  height: auto;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 8px 16px;
  line-height: 1.428571429;
  color: #555555 !important;
  vertical-align: middle;
  background: none;
  background-color: #ffffff;
  border: 1px solid #6a6a6a;
  border-radius: 2px;
  text-shadow: none;
  box-shadow: inset 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.075), 0 0 8px rgba(68, 68, 68, 0.15);
}

Hi Daniel,

I just answered your email but wanted to post the solution here as well, in case someone else runs into the same thing.

The mc4wp- prefix method only works for Contact Form 7 and other HTML integrations, not for the comment form. To add MailChimp fields to your comment form, you’ll have to take the following steps.

1) Add the HTML to you comment form, which you already did so that is great. 🙂

2) Tell the plugin to send that field to MailChimp. You can use the mc4wp_merge_vars filter for this.

add_filter( 'mc4wp_merge_vars', function( $vars ) {

   if( isset( $_POST['GROUPINGS'] ) ) {
      $vars['GROUPINGS'] = $_POST['GROUPINGS'];
   }

   return $vars;
});

(Please use $_POST['your-field-name'] in the snippet).

Hope that helps. If not, let me know!

Hi NIkesh,

We’d love to take a closer look at this issue to help you resolve it. Could you send us an email at support[at]mc4wp.com with admin credentials so we can take a look?

Please include a link to this topic so we know the backstory. 🙂

Thanks in advance!

Hi Revampcyber,

Which things did you try already?

Adding the following snippet of code to your theme its stylesheet or using a plugin like Simple Custom CSS should do the trick!

.mc4wp-form input[type="submit"] {
    background-color: orange;
}

Hey Oejabeja,

In terms of code, the actual subscribe request is pretty much decoupled form the form itself (for easier unit testings, better decoupling, law of demeter etc..). What exactly are you trying to do? Do you want to hook into a successful form submissions or do you want to hook into a successful sign-up request?

We’ll think of a way to make it possible! 🙂
