We can’t even get into the backend of wordpress – everything is gone including our flavicon. We are not technical people so we are in a mini panic as to how to get this site back up. I assume we had the same problem as you. How did you recover it? * Thread Starter [lindaloustarr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lindaloustarr/) * (@lindaloustarr) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bigmailchimp-fatal-error/#post-2912469) * Hi McClelm – I didn’t mess with it – don’t have time or the patience these days with getting my site up & running LOL – uninstalled & used this one [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mailchimp/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mailchimp/) works like a charm in the sidebar & auto registers right from the sidebar doesn’t even take person off page 🙂 you can try it out at a page on site with a sidebar [http://lindaloustarr.com/who-is-linda-lou/](http://lindaloustarr.com/who-is-linda-lou/) hope this helps you 🙂 * Relax ~ Take a Break ~ Feel Good & Be Inspired Linda Lou * [mcclelm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mcclelm/) * (@mcclelm) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bigmailchimp-fatal-error/#post-2912470) * Linda – Thanks so much for your quick response and for the link to the other plugin for mailchimp. We are going to give it a try. We were able to get the site back up by going in and deleting the ‘bad’ plugin. * Thanks again!

As soon as one I found gets all the bugs out of it I’m going to post all the glorious plugins I’ve found that do work & help put wordpress on autopilot as much as possible 🙂 * I don’t want to post my site here but if you you’d like to be updated when all those awesome plugins I’ve found are available let me know via lindaloustarr dot ak at gmail dot com Linda Lou Starr Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) The topic ‘[Plugin: BigMailChimp] Fatal Error’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/bigmailchimp_acafb9.svg) * [Big MailChimp](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bigmailchimp/) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bigmailchimp/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bigmailchimp/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bigmailchimp/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bigmailchimp/reviews/) ## Tags * [mail chimp](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/mail-chimp/) * 8 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [lindaloustarr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lindaloustarr/) * Last activity: [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bigmailchimp-fatal-error/#post-2912481) * Status: not resolved
