 * Hi,
 * New subscribers are no longer being added to my Mailchimp mailing list after 
   completing checkout. It used to work.
 * I have read previous replies on this subject but they either didn’t apply to 
   my settings or I didn’t understand them. For example, I have no idea what the‘
   logging’ section is that has been referred to.
 * My settings for the plug-in are:
 * Enabled – yes
    Implicit – No Mailchimp list – checked Double opt-in -No Update
   existing subscribers- No
 * I don’t know what the ‘update existing subscribers’ bit is for, so clarity on
   that would be helpful too
 * Thanks
 * Fonzifuzz

 * I have now found the ‘logging’ section and changed it to say ‘everything’. There
   were no relevant errors showing up in the debug log.

 * Update subscribers means that if en email is already in your list it will be 
   updated with the information from the checkout form, if it’s set to no the subscriber
   data will be left alone as it’s already subscribed.
 * Please share a link to where I can see this on your website so I can take a look
   at this. Thanks!

 * Does that mean the subscribed details will only be updated if they are changed,
   or does it add the same customer multiple times to the list?
 * Sorry for this very basic question!
 * I’m not sure how I can share a link to show you what you mean- do you want a 
   screenshot of the page?

 * It will update the existing subscriber. It’s not possible to have the same email
   twice in 1 audience.
 * You can just give me a link to the public part of your website where you have
   the form so I can test the form myself. Thanks

 * New customers aren’t being added to the subscriber list after purchase, when 
   they check the ‘subscribe me etc’ box

 * Hi [@isingh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isingh/)
 * Thanks for asking this because no it didn’t!
 * I’m not a developer so I find some of the techie stuff a bit daunting
 * They have advised that I start a new thread though, so that’s what I’ll do.

 * Please create a new post for your own issue and don’t forget to post the errors
   that you see under Mailchimp for WP > Other as Harish requested. Thanks
