Collecting emails for multiple lists

afaik the free version supports only one list…

Hi there,

The www.ads-software.com version of this plugin only supports 1 form (because of the way it is set-up) but you can use this form to subscribe to as many lists as you want. With the Pro version, you can create multiple forms where each form can subscribe to one or multiple MailChimp lists.

Another option is to include a list choice in your form which allows visitors to choose which lists to subscribe to.

If you’re comfortable with PHP then you can use the mc4wp_lists filter to set the lists to subscribe to dynamically.

function myprefix_mc4wp_lists( $lists ) {
	return array( '123abc123abc' );
}
add_filter( 'mc4wp_lists', 'myprefix_mc4wp_lists' );

Hope that pushes you in the right direction!

Thank you for your replies. I’ll investigate and see how I get on. ??

I’m not sure I can do this without help and I preferably want to just drive people to a specific list rather than give them a choice. Just to be clear, its for the same Mailchimp account but for a specific segment I want to set up. I want the website to drive people to 1 list while one section of the site will drive people to another.

At the moment I have one for website subscribers as collected throughout the site and the other list is for a specific guest blogger. Ideally I want to use the sidebar to collect for both lists (separately of course) and I’m not sure how to differentiate one from the other in the settings and when creating the forms.

Any pointers for doing this would appreciated.
