    How To Create Secure Signup for Newsletter

    I created a page with just my mailchimp signup form on it.

    The PCI compliance scan doesn't like it as it is.


    Can anyone show me how to make that page secure?

    Thank you

    I'm thinking it might be because of this in your checkout pages
    Code:
    <!-- Begin MailChimp Signup Form css --><link href="http://cdn-images.mailchimp.com/embe...lim-081711.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"><style type="text/css">#mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; }/* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. */</style><!--End mc_embed_signup-->
    You should wrap that info so that is does not get inserted on your checkout pages.

    So in your head tag content something like this in your global (head content/css)
    Code:
    <mvt:if expr="g.secure">
    <mvt:else>
    <mvt:item name="mailchimp" param="headtag" />
    </mvt:if>

        I think you may have a couple other things when you are done with that one to keep from having a secure warning with browsers. You can remove them in the same way so that they don't get called into secure pages.

          tip: you can make that conditional simplier:

          Code:
          <mvt:if expr="NOT(g.secure)">
          <mvt:item name="mailchimp" param="headtag" />
          </mvt:if>

            The code says "mailchimp" is not an item. How do you make "mailchimp" into a mvt item? The add item page asks for a module.
            Or can I change the code somehow?

              Did you download the module and the docs from here: http://www.mivamerchant.com/mailchimp

                This is something that should have been done when adding the mailchimp module. You can add the item manually by clicking pages / items adding it with code and module both being mailchimp

                  I'm confused though because you have mailchimp code showing which means the item should already be there. Take a look at what's adding it to the pages.

                    How can I control the width of the sign-up form? I'd like to put it in the left column, under the last item in my category tree.
                    Thanks to all who replied for the details on getting the mail chimp sign up form working.

                      Rick, I also had this issue. I installed the MailChimp module, and double-checked to make sure it was assigned to the OCST page, and it hadn't been. Not only that, but it didn't create the item like it was supposed to either.

                      Can you confirm these instructions for others this may happen to?

                      HOW TO CREATE THE MAIL CHIMP ITEM.....

                      (1) Pages in the left column of admin, then click the Items tab.

                      (2) Click Add Item, and input mailchimp into both fields.

                      (3) Hit add and you're done son
