TOPIC: Help with MailChimp Signup Form and CMC module

Hallo.

Sorry for my very basic questions and for my English too!

I've just started to work with the CMC component on a new Joomla 2.5 website and I have some problems.

This is the website URL: www.cascinaboscogerolo.it/newsletter.html

1) With Mailchimp I've created my first Signup form (General type) but I can see the the text in the Signup Form Header (see attached image) on the Mailchimp "Build it" page only AND NOT in the CMC Module. Why???



FYI the CMC Module is inside the "Newsletter" article using the {loadposition.....} code.

2) I would like to add a simple checkbox (always required) so the Users can accept the legal terms and Italian Law Privacy Policy.
As you can see I've used a "Checkbox field" in the Mailchimp "Build it" page.......but it desn't workk since the user can sent the registration even without the checkbox selection.

Any suggestion will be very appreciated.

Thank-you!

Hey there,
In the module settings you have an option to put text before the form. So use it.

2) As far the checkbox is concerned -> isn't there a required option for the checkbox in maichimnp? If you set the checkbox to be required in mailchimp it will be required with our module as well.

Daniel

First of all thank-you for your very fast and professional support.

1) The Intro-text/Text above submit/Text below submit fields in the CMC Module can't be stylized since you can't use HTML....just plain text.

Alternate solution is a properly stylized text in the article just before the {loadposition .....} code.

In both cases the reason why the header in the Mailchimp Signup Form is hidden........it's still a mistery.


2) In Mailchimp Signup Forms a "checkbox" field do not have the "required field" option....I'm lost!!!

But there is more.
After several tests and CMC Plug-ins/Module activation double-ckecks I've found that the whole thing do not work.....
Of course I've checked the API and Webhook codes.....

In simple words if the user insert the correct datas in all the module's fields, the "ThankYou Message" show up.....but no e-mail send to user and no user added in Mailchimp.

Thank-you again.

Whoa...!
I've just received the e-mail for the subscription confirmation..........after about 3 hours and 20 minutes.

So the CMC Component & module are working good.

Now I will ask to the Maichimp Technical Support about the "confirmation" checkbox on the Signup Forms.

Thanks again for your great support.
