I'm brandie new to using WFB ....

I have a mailchimp list that I have imported the subscribers from aweber. So I have never used a form for this list before. I have one set up - just never used it.

I created a form in WFB - got an API from Mailchimp ... Matched the setting - it tells me its good ... Published to SDrive .... Then I filled out the form with one of my emails (2 different ones) - I got a webpage that told me the info I supplied - I didn't get a confirmation email from Mailchimp and nothing shows up in my mailchimp account??

Any help is greatly appreciated! ;)

Ellie,

I filled out your form, was taken to Mail Chimp site, and was enrolled and am now receiving your Newsletters. It may be that it took a little bit of time to process or you had a cached page on your end. Try deleting your cookies. :D

Hi ... Sorry for late reply. Thanks so much for checking this for me! Yes ... you are right the emails I subscribed did get the confirmation email and then were added to Mailchimp ... It took longer than I expected which was not the fault of WF.

Thanks for your help! :)
