 * Hi,
 * I’d like to be able to reorder the inputs on the widget from the plugin. I found
   a thread for this:
 * [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailchimp-list-subscribe-form-wp-plug-in-feature-user-input-positions?replies=5](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mailchimp-list-subscribe-form-wp-plug-in-feature-user-input-positions?replies=5)
 * but it seems like the mailchimp backend has changed since then, so this guide:
 * [http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-do-i-change-the-order-of-the-columns-fields-in-my-list-signup-form](http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-do-i-change-the-order-of-the-columns-fields-in-my-list-signup-form)
 * no longer helps me. It seems like the functionality has changed/moved at the 
   mailchimp end.
 * Could anybody help me out with how to achieve this with the latest version of
   wordpress and the snazzy new mailchimp interface?
 * Thanks
 * Jamie

 * Hey Jamie,
 * Thanks for posting! The process in which to reorder your fields on your WordPress
   plugin’s signup form is actually going to be very similar as it was in the old
   MailChimp design. Ultimately, to reorder the field order that your plugin’s form
   utilizes you’ll need to: a) reorder your fields in the Form Builder of your List
   inside of your MailChimp Account and b) use the “update list” button that’s inside
   of your WordPress plugin’s Settings area.
 * Now, the KB article you linked to is still referencing the old design, so I can
   definitely understand the confusion here. As we transition to the new MailChimp
   design, there are still some areas that need updating, and this is an example
   of one here. I’ll make sure to pass that link along to our documentation team!
 * In the mean time, I’d be happy to walk through the steps ya need to take! Okay,
   first we want to reorder our fields in your MailChimp account. Log in to MailChimp,
   then click on the Lists tab. From there, click on the title of the List in question,
   then click on “Signup Forms” at the top. You should then see an area called “
   General Forms”. Click the “select” button there.
 * Once there, you should see the Form Builder. Click and drag the fields in the
   order that you’d like your form to have them in and you should see those changes
   saved.
 * Now, just one more step, which is to update your plugin’s settings. To do that,
   log in to your WP-admin area, then go to the Plugins area and go to the Settings
   page for our WordPress plugin. From there, click the “update list” button at 
   the top. You should now be good to go!
 * If you have any questions about the actual plugin’s process, feel free to post
   back here. If you’re having trouble locating the Form Builder inside of your 
   MailChimp account, I’d recommend reaching out to our Support team through email
   or live chats! (the link is on the right-hand side of our KB articles)
