Do I need a Pro MailChimp account?

No – any level MailChimp account should work.

Go here and login: https://admin.mailchimp.com/account/api-key-popup … BAM!

What colors are available for the Chiclet?

Blue, red, yellow, and black are available when you generate the shortcode. More colors are coming soon with the Pro version of this plugin.

How do I add the Chiclet programmatically?

To add the plugin to your theme (like the footer.php file), use the do_shortcode method of WordPress. See the screenshots for details.

Can't get the plugin to work. No help provided

By ahewardt67 on May 5, 2017

I have several times made attempts to get help in the support forum without any answers. I installed the plugin and the install went smooth, until I looking in the plugin directory where it stated that it was not activated. Well I did that already during install. Tried clicking the 'activate' in the plugins directory on dash, no luck. I really want to try this plugin, but for some reason its just not working. I have tried to contact then owner /producer, but no luck there either. Not sure why this is happening. I give this plugin a 1 mainly because the support is basically not there. Frustrating. Other plugins have responses hours after question is asked.

Promsing start!

Needs a built-in "no style" option. But other than that, it works great! Now that mailchimp killed off their script that let you pull this directly, this is a nice and easy substitute.

Badly styled

Why is it not styled with CSS?
The plugin use a background PNG image with a huge (!) font, seriously?
No settings available, to adapt it to the own blog style - bad!
