    Hello,

    I’m having an issue with the Mailchimp for WordPress plugin.
    I don’t know what it changes on the forms. I actually didn’t see any difference, however, the Debug Log list located at the “Others” item of Mailchimp for WP, shows me this:

    [2017-01-29 20:53:40] ERROR: Form 2857 > MailChimp API error: 503 Service Unavailable.

    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks

    Hello @felipewat,

    The earlier errors “503” would have been caused when there was a connection issue between your website & MailChimp.com servers. The errors of 25th march were caused when a subscribers email was blocked by MailChimp.com

    You can ignore most errors except 503 as when they are caused subscriber information is not added to your list.

    I hope that answers your query. Let us know if you have any further questions.

    There are a bunch of us apparently having the same issue. I am getting 3 different error messages when people try to sign up in my opt-in. One of the messages is ‘Configuration error.’ Hope they fix this soon.

    I’m having the same problem. The form was working ok but now just shows 503 error messages. Has anyone found a solution to this issue?
