Hi roham,

This is currently not possible with s2Member.

Any updates on this? Is it possible to do with the Mailchimp API to begin with?

Thanks for the reply Cristián! It's a shame that MailChamp doesn't provide this option, although they are planning something similar in future if I understood right.

I've an another idea: Since s2Member already communicates with MailChimp trough their API, wouldn't it be possible to build in some newsletter management features right into s2Member? I mean the subscription and unsubscription features are already built in (API / List Servers / MailChimp / List and Groups ID's and the ability to change subscriptions automatically whenever a memberships change occurs), so theoretically it would be possible to offer members a simple form to subscribe and unsubscribe from different MailChimp lists and interest groups or to update their MailChimp profiles right from the WordPress site. It would provide a much more integrated experience to the members. Maybe this could be even a s2Member Pro feature... What do you think?

I searched how to have a link to edit the MailChimp profile, but this doesn't seem possible other than from the email they send with it. http://blog.mailchimp.com/update-profil ... ment-12353

Hi Cristián,

Thanks for the reply. I'd like to allow my users to access their list subscription settings at MailChimp trough a link on the WP site. Without this they can access these settings only when they receive an email from me and click on the update profile link in the email footer.

thanks, Greg

Hi Greg.

s2Member integrates with MailChimp and I believe it uses the email address to identify them, but there isn't a profile field to update their MailChimp subscription. What kind of update do you want to allow with that?

MailChimp subscription update from s2Member

2011-06-23T23:43:30-05:00

Hi,

I was wondering whether it is possible to show users a MailChimp subscription update link on an s2Member enabled WordPress site? It would be very useful to offer users the option to update their newsletter subscription settings, for example the interest groups. The link could be similar to the one sent out in the emails (e.g. http://sitename.us2.list-manage.com/pro ... d&e=someid)

For this to work s2Member should know MailChimp subscribers ID-s or some other unique identifier, I imagine. Is s2Member storing this info for the WP users?

Thanks in advance!

best regards,
Greg Keen
