 * Forbidden. Request: GET [https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/](https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/)
   Response: 403 Forbidden –
 * Also tried enable a javascript code for a subscriber pop up form. Doesn’t work
   and it disables several pictures on the website.
 * Assume the API needs to be fixed first. Any reason why I get error 403? Tried
   disabling the API key, requested new– Tried twice but didn’t work.

 * It’s working now, thanks.
 * However the subscription signup form we made doesn’t look responsive in the phone.
 * Feels like it’s “stuck” in the header and you can only see one line and the send
   button.
 * edit: maybe this is an issue within mailchimp.com and not the plug-in?
