Hey fprati,

I just wanted to confirm that ver. 1.4.2 of the plugin is now live and available for download. You should see the option to update to the latest version of the plugin from within your site’s dashboard.

Let us know if there are any lingering questions or concerns. We’ll be here to help!

Hey muz4now,

I suspect you may have been effected by the recent issue with ver. 1.4.1 of the plugin that occurred following the update of WP to 4.0. I’m happy to confirm that we’ve since updated to 1.4.2, and you should see the option to update within your WP dashboard.

Please don’t hesitate to let us know if there are any questions.

Hey everyone!

I’m happy to confirm that version 1.4.2 of the plugin is now available for download. You should now see prompts within your WP dashboard to update the plugin. The new version can also be found here, for those newcomers:

Hey everybody,
It sounds like you’re encountering a similar issue to what’s being discussed in a couple other threads. Our plugin developers have fortunately been made aware of the issue, and we’ve submitted a new version of the plugin for approval. Once that happens, I’ll be providing an update in all the open threads related to this topic, but in the mean time it may help to have a look at this thread:

Thanks for your patience! You’ll be hearing from me, soon.

Hey richards1052!

I noticed you’d posted in another thread, which I’d just replied to. I want to make sure you get that info, so I’ve pasted it below:

Hey richards1052,

Thanks for dropping by the forum.

We’ve actually been receiving some similar reports from other users, and the plugin developers are aware of the issue. It looks like the problem first appeared with the introduction of WP 4.0, so we’re actually about to update the plugin in response (pending approval from WordPress). I’ll actually be posting an update to the forums once we’ve heard more information, but I’d definitely encourage checking out this thread for more information and suggestions:

We really appreciate your patience. I’ll be sure to provide updates as we get them!

Hey michael_clever_creative!

Thanks for posting to the forum. I totally understand the need to get that message changed. We’re happy to help.

As mc_nate had mentioned in a previous thread (https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/plugin-mailchimp-list-subscribe-form-changing-errorconfirmation-messages?replies=20), we’ll actually want to make that change to the PO file that comes with the plugin, where you can rewrite the inline error/success messages to your liking. As that thread mentioned, we’ll want to follow the steps in this guide to get that PO file changed:

https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/mailchimp/other_notes/

As for editing the look of those messages, you’ll want to utilize the following two CSS classes:

.mc_success_msg (for the successful, confirmation message)

.mc-error-msg (for the error message)

Let us know if there are any questions!

Hey fprati,

Thanks for posting to the thread.

Whitelisting should help in situations where a host’s servers are blocking traffic between servers. That’s why it’s often recommended in situations where the app is failing to connect.

That said, was there a specific error message you were receiving? We’ve actually been receiving some similar reports from other users following the update to 4.0, as was discussed here:

https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/is-this-plugin-compatible-with-latest-version-40?replies=28

If you’re encountering that particular error message, it may help to temporarily utilize the embed code that’s found in your MailChimp account. Our developers have actually submitted approval for an update to the plugin, which should happen shortly, but in the mean time the embed code may be the way to go.

Let us know if the problem persists, or if there are any questions.
