Just to follow up, I installed JoomlaMailer on a brand new Joomla 1.6 installation on a separate hosting account using the default template. Though I didn't encounter any errors, I'm still having trouble with the plugin. If you check out the attached screen captures, you can see that JoomlaMailer is successfully connecting to MailChimp (my lists appear) yet they don't appear in the plug-in as a drop-down select box; I tried in both Chrome and Firefox 4.

Has anyone else had this happen, or is the plug-in working fine for everyone else?

Cheers,
Chris

Hello Chris,

We found a bug in the signup plugin. To fix it you need to edit the file /plugins/system/joomailermailchimpsignup/joomailermailchimpsignup.xml At line 40 addfieldpath must be "/plugins/system/joomailermailchimpsignup/joomailermailchimpsignup/elements"
After you did that the newsletter lists will show up as dropdown list in the plugin configuration.
My apologies for the inconvenience.

Kind regards,
Pete

Hi Pete,

Thanks for the fix. I can now successfully select a list, field and interests in the plugin. However, there's still nothing on the registration page on either of the sites I'm testing it on. Here's one example:

digitalbloom.net/joomla16/index.php/usin...nt/registration-form

It's just a plain Joomla 1.6.3 installation. Plug-in is enabled, list has been selected etc. The module is visible on the same page and it's working fine... Just nothing in the registration form area.

Any other ideas?

Regards,
Chris

I have seen many posts about the registration component not working in Core Joomla, but the fix is never posted, all topics end with 'please send me your login to take a closer look'.

I too am having same issue. There is no check box to add new users to newsletter in Core and new users are not being added. I would also like to get a better understanding of how to add 'Fname' 'Lname' fields to the mailchimp new registration subscription.
Also 'Manage subscriptions' and 'newsletter subscriptions' links from menus also do not work. (404 error).
Can someone please help me, I will be sure to post the results of the fix for others to see.

After installing joomlamailer, I received the following error:
fatal error: Cannot access empty property in /libraries/joomla/registry/format/ini.php on line 249

Hello cantyman,

Looks like you got it fixed. How did you do that? I'm not entirely sure joomlamailer could cause that error.

Kind regards,
Pete

Hello,

It can have different reasons why the signup plugin doesn't show up on the registration page. There is not one specific fix for it. Please switch your template to one of the default ones and see if the newsletter checkbox appears on the registration page.

If you are using the Joomla core registration, joomlamailer uses the "name" field to populate fname and lname. It separates the entered value by the space character. The first part will become fname and all other parts (if they were entered) will be passed as lname. If only one name was entered (no spaces) the fname field will be blank.

The menu items do actually not work in version 1.7. This will be fixed in the next version.

Kind regards,
Pete

Hi Guys,

Quite new to this forum, but after installing the mailchimp component, the sign-up module will not work. Debugging gives: $("mcsignupSubmit5713").addEvent is not a function. I read about mootools and jqeury conflicts and the no-conficht option on this forum, but I don't know if this applies to this case. I am using a Yootheme template and I am not sure which files to edit and where to find them. Could anybody help me?

It is a test-site: www.aupsonline.fr/caryon16



It would be much appreciated!

Another site with yootheme doesn'y give problems. Maybe another extention?

a strange code appears in the module edit box:

Hello Peter,

This is quite sure a jQuery conflict as well. There are several modules on your site using jQuery. For example the module where you enter the zip code. Try to disable all modules you are using and then enable one by one until the joomailer signup module stops working. You need to get in touch with the developers of that module about how to put it into noconflict mode.

On the screenshot you posted you see the list ID being displayed. This has already been fixed for the next version. It doesn't affect the functionality.

Kind regards,
Pete
