Configuration

To disable SSL verfication (e.g. for your local dev environment) you can add the following to your _config.php file:

Config::inst()->update('DrewM\MailChimp\MailChimp', 'verify_ssl', false);

MailChimpSignupPage

The page type has a 'MailChimp' tab where the MailChimp API Key and the AudienceID can be configured.

Once the page is saved it will automatically read the fields from the MailChimp list and display a generated signup form based on these fields.

You can block the loading of jQuery and jQuery validate by using the following config option:

Innoweb\MailChimpSignup\Pages\SignupPageController:
  block_default_jquery_and_validate: true

You can block the loading of the form validation script by using the following config option:

Innoweb\MailChimpSignup\Pages\SignupPageController:
  block_form_validation: true

If you keep this enabled, you need to have jQuery/validate enabled as well or load these libraries by other means before this form validation script.

The forms fields loaded from MailChimp are cached for 5 minutes by default. You can change the cache time in the config:

Innoweb\MailChimpSignup\MailchimpDataLoader:
  field_cache_seconds: 300

Whenever the signup page is published, the cache is deleted.

MailChimpCampaignListPage

The page type has a 'MailChimp' tab where the MailChimp API Key, as well as the campaign filters and limitscan be configured.

The following configuration options are available:

Innoweb\MailChimpSignup\Pages\CampaignListPage:
  auto_update: true
  update_interval: 3600

If auto_update is enabled, the campaigns are read from MailChimp when the page is displayed, using the update_interval (seconds) as a limit.
The campaigns are always updated when the page is saved.
