Mailchimp Integration
Get Subscribers From Your Comment Section
Mailchimp is by far the largest provider for newsletters. Adding Mailchimp to your comment section is a no-brainer and is an easy way to get more subscribers through comments.
Mailchimp Checkbox on the Comment Form
You'll find Mailchimp in the Integrations tab in Comment Edit Pro. If you're setting it up for the first time, you'll see an enable toggle switch.
Enable Mailchimp Toggle Switch
Once Mailchimp is enabled, you can enter your Mailchimp API key.

Documentation for Retrieving the Mailchimp API Key
Once you have entered your API key, you will need to save the options so that you can select a list.
Setting the Mailchimp API Key and Selecting a List
Once a list is selected, you can configure and save the options.
Mailchimp Options
You can customize:
- The sign-up label: this will show above the comment submit button.
- The checked state: you can check or uncheck the sign-up option.
Checked by default: having the box checked may affect spam protection in some countries.
With Mailchimp set up, you will now see a checkbox above the submit button for subscribing to a list.
Sign-up Label and Checkbox
If this feature proves popular and users request it, there is a plan to allow a Mailchimp list per post setting.
