MailChimp API key not valid anymore

    Hello,

    I have an issue with my MailChimp API key suddenly claimed invalid by the plugin, although I made sure it actually matches the key in MailChimp. I guess this happened after updating to the latest version of the plugin (3.0.1). I already tried to generate a new API key in MailChimp, but to no avail.
    Anyone having similar issues?

    Best regards,
    Alex

    Hey Alex

    What browser are you using? I’ve see a few issues with safari and ajax requests. There is a line of code you can insert into the plugin to better check what error is being returned.

    Take a look at this issue on the plugin github page: https://github.com/yikesinc/yikes-inc-easy-mailchimp-extender/issues/62

    If your still having issues you can reach me at the email listed there.

    Thanks!

    I’m using Firefox (27.0.1), but I think, this is not the culprit here. Thanks for pointing me to that github page. Your comment there did the trick:

    Something with your Host’s server configuration is triggering the plugin to use the SSL settings, even tho these users are not on SSL.

    There is a simple workaround to get the plugin functioning on such servers.

    Inside of the file MCAPI_2.0.class.php, replace the code on line 121 (which should be set to:
    public $ssl_verifypeer = true;) with this code

    public $ssl_verifypeer = false;

    Thanks a lot!
