Create new form in mailchimp for wp
Here's a step-by-step guide to creating a new form in Mailchimp and integrating it with your WordPress website:
Step 1: Log in to your Mailchimp account
Go to your Mailchimp account and log in with your credentials.
Step 2: Create a new form
Click on the "Forms" tab in the top navigation menu, then click on the "Create a form" button.
Step 3: Choose a form type
Select the type of form you want to create:
- Basic Form: A simple form with a single field (e.g., name and email).
- Advanced Form: A form with multiple fields, conditional logic, and more.
- Popup Form: A form that appears as a popup on your website.
For this example, we'll choose the "Basic Form" option.
Step 4: Add form fields
Add the fields you want to include in your form. For a basic form, you'll likely want to include:
- Name: A text field for the subscriber's name.
- Email: An email field for the subscriber's email address.
You can add more fields as needed, such as phone number, company, or comments.
Step 5: Customize form settings
Customize the form settings as needed:
- Form name: Give your form a name for your own reference.
- Form description: Add a brief description of the form.
- Form thank you message: Set a message that will be displayed after the form is submitted.
Step 6: Add form to your Mailchimp audience
Select the audience you want to add the form to. If you don't have an audience set up, you can create one now.
Step 7: Get the form code
Click on the "Get the form code" button to retrieve the code for your form.
Step 8: Add the form code to your WordPress website
There are a few ways to add the form code to your WordPress website:
- Widget: If you're using a page builder like Elementor or Beaver Builder, you can add the form code as a widget.
- Shortcode: You can add the form code as a shortcode in your WordPress page or post.
- Plugin: You can use a plugin like Mailchimp Form Builder to add the form code to your website.
Here's an example of how to add the form code as a shortcode:
- Copy the form code from Mailchimp.
- In your WordPress page or post, add a new shortcode by clicking on the "+" icon in the editor.
- Paste the form code into the shortcode editor.
- Click "Insert" to add the shortcode to your page or post.
Step 9: Test the form
Test the form on your website to ensure it's working correctly. Fill out the form and submit it to verify that the form is sending data to Mailchimp.
That's it! You've successfully created a new form in Mailchimp and integrated it with your WordPress website.
