EE Mailchimp does not show Mailchimp Extra List Fields during Event Reg.

Using EE4; Mailchimp plugin.

Created Groups on Mailchimp. Also created Extra Fields on Mailchimp.

Problem: EE4 doesn’t not display the Extra Field when registering for an event. Also, EE4 does not actually add the person to the ticked Group.

Yes, the Mailchimp API does work properly. We successfully tested registering for an event, and that subscriber was successfully added to Mailchimp.

The problem started after we added Mailchimp Groups and Extra Field. Then, any new attempts to register for an event resulted in no Subscribers being added to Mailchimp.

Note: In EE4, double opt-in is set to “on”, but no “Please Confirm Subscription” email was ever sent.

Hello,

You should see the groups along with the form fields like this in the event editor:

Then when a registration takes place, Event Espresso will start the opt-in process by triggering the email from MailChimp.

What do you currently see in the MailChimp area of the event editor?

Thanks, Lorenzo. All the MailChimp stuff works now. I’m not sure how it got fixed; I’m guessing from our updating the WooThemes Canvas theme.
