User sentiment analysis

Users generally found the official MailChimp plugin for WordPress helpful for integrating MailChimp forms into their websites quickly and simply. Positive feedback highlighted ease of setup and integration, quick installation, and good support from developers. However, many users faced significant issues. The plugin has been criticized for being outdated, with old-fashioned design and limited functionality. Common problems included compatibility issues with newer PHP versions and other plugins like Yoast SEO, lack of customization options, subpar styling out of the box, and poor performance making websites slow. Bugs affecting plugin functionality and the absence of essential features, like multiple form support, further marred user experiences.

Why has this plugin been abandoned? A company of MailChimp’s size can easily afford to maintain this WordPress plugin. Either support the plugin or delete it.

Doesn’t display anything in a sidebar, no instructions, screenshots look like they’re from 2010 [as @ 22/07/2023].

This plugin does not help you incorporate MailChimp into your WordPress site, at all.

If you have PHP version 8.0 or above on your website, you will receive the following message ONLY if you have the Javascript option OFF in the MailChimp plugin settings — if you don’t have the Javascript option on, the form won’t work and you won’t receiving any error messages indicating why: Warning: Undefined array key “phone_format” in …/wp-content/plugins/mailchimp/mailchimp.php on line 861 Downgrade to PHP 7.4+ if possible and it will work again. In the meantime, MailChimp really needs to up their game since WordPress+MailChimp integration is important to many, otherwise you’ll telling us to move to Constant Contact, et cetera.
