Mailchimp not pulling in names

[chuff80]

Hi there,

I just launched a small site with s2 Member. The Mailchimp integration is working marvelously, with one exception. It's not populating the First Name/Last Name fields. Any way to fix this?

Hi there... Thanks for reporting this.

s2Member's MailChimp integration IS designed to support the FNAME, LNAME, OPTINIP fields for MailChimp. However, it appears that you have BuddyPress installed, which throws a monkey wrench into the way s2Member pulls that information. BuddyPress receives the full name, instead of the two different fields.

~ I'll add this to our list of things to go over before the next release.

@C/TODO :: check register-access.inc.php for possible fixes to BuddyPress/MailChimp integration.

This issue was addressed in the release of s2Member v3.2

- BuddyPress/MailChimp. The first/last name fields were NOT being populated into the MailChimp® integration with BuddyPress installed. This has been resolved with s2Member v3.2+.
