Hello,

So far I have:

[ol]
[li]Signed up for MailChimp[/li]
[li]Signed up for Mandrill[/li]
[li]Installed CMandrill and Configured it[/li]
[li]Created a template in MailChimp[/li]
[li]Sent it to Mandrill[/li]
[li]Tested the template and received what I expected (a blank, styled template)[/li]
[li]Triggered the sending of emails from Joomla![/li]
[/ol]

I am received nice, styled, but EMPTY emails.

I think what I need to do is insert a merge tag or some sort of shortcode into the template in Mandrill, so Mandrill knows where to put the information that CMandrill is sending it.

If that's correct, what do I need?

I have read some of the MailChimp documentation which seems to suggest that "mc:edit="main"" is what is required. I have pasted that into my template, and tested it again, and it just says mc:edit="main".

I reckon I'm close - can someone help me across the line? I'll be forever grateful!
