I have seen several customers ask for the ability to add tags to MailChimp when users signup through the EE ticket form. Tony was the support agent that answered the ones I read, and offered a hook to add the tags, but I never saw the actual hook to use for this purpose. Can you provide the hook to use for adding tags to the MailChimp subscriber using your plugin?

Hi there,

You can use a filter we have on the subscribe args for this:

FHEE__EE_MCI_Controller__mci_submit_to_mailchimp__subscribe_args

So something like:

https://gist.github.com/Pebblo/66f1bcd1963c4a473a156c2fb058eac6

Would 'Test 1', 'Test 2', 'Test 3' tags to your list and any new subscribers would have those tags set on them. Rather than hardcoding the tags, it would likely be better to use a custom field on the event and then pull those values into the above.

What the above hook can not be used for, is updating tags on a current subscriber, it will only work for new subscriptions.

Is that what you are looking for?
