MailChimp List Subscribe Form – WordPress plugin Free download
MailChimp List Subscribe Form
Description
Use the MailChimp List Subscribe plugin to quickly add a MailChimp signup form widget to your WordPress 2.8 or higher site.
After installation, you’ll log in with your API key, select your MailChimp list, choose merge fields and groups, and add the widget to your site. Typically, installation and setup will take about 5-10 minutes, and absolutely everything can be done via the WordPress Setting GUI, with no file editing at all.
WordPress.com compatibility is limited to Business tier users only. How to add a signup form if you have a WordPress.com site.
Upgrading
If you are upgrading to version 1.2.1 and you used the widget in your sidebar previously, all you need to do is drag the MailChimp Widget back into the sidebar, visit the MailChimp settings page (which will have maintained your prior settings), click the “Update List” button, and you’re done!
