MailChimp

Hi All, I was wondering if there is any documentation that outlines how the MailChimp integration with s2member works? I was mainly wondering 2 things:

1. What happens if someone unsubscribes from the mailchimp list?

2. Is there a way to add an email opt in checkbox or radio buttons to my registration forms, that will automatically work with the s2member/mailchimp integration?

Cheers :)

Hi all, is anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Also I've entered my mailchimp api key and list id's but nothing seems to have happened...

Cheers

I also need to know where in the database the email preference is stored as I need to make sure all my imported members are on the mailing list.

Thanks :)

If I had to guess, changes made in MailChimp aren't going to pass to s2member. That would be a pretty sophisticated API integration... and I'm not seeing that level of sophistication with many MailChimp plugins. I actually can't think of a full integration with any platform that updates both ways.

Hi Mckanea, thanks for the response - so how about if someone was removed from the WordPress users list, would they be deleted from the MailChimp list too?

Thank you :)

Please let me know what you discover - I have the same question.

Zoe, when they get removed from WordPress or demoted, the MailChimp side would be updated if you set it that way in your preferences. WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / List Servers -> Automate

The integration is s2Member->MailChimp, not MailChimp->s2Member. I remember someone writing the latter one and posting it some time ago... Found it: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=10289

The opt-in option during registration can be enabled your List Server options. WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / List Servers -> Registration

I hope that helps. :)
