 * I have tried to add the plugin to my website using the shortcode but it does 
   not work. I see always the code in the frontend. Is there any other way to display
   the Mailchimp?

 * Are you adding the shortcode using a widget or some page builder ?

 * Hi there, I bought online the Mailchimp-subscribe-sm-premium yesterday, and received
   the link to the Zip file in the email sent to me.
    However, when I come to upoad
   it into my plugin back office page, it won’t let me do it. It just displays all
   the files within the zip file without letting me upload. The zip file loses the.
   zip at the end of its name when I download it into my computer. Thanks for helping
   me sort this out.

 * Re: Mailchimp Subscrobe SM Premium which I recently bought online. Thanks for
   fixing the Subscribe form for me, but I need a different heading. So I tried 
   again and selected Template 6, Shortcode 2810, and edited it with the text I 
   want, ‘subscribe to the newsletter’ then put it live. But the text just will 
   not take. You’ll see on my Homepage (where I want it to be, on the right) only
   shows the outline of the form, no words. I have tried in vain going through several
   different routes from my dashboard menu, to no avail. How exactly does one get
   it to ‘take’?
