I am using Joomla 4.1.4 and the latest version of SP Page Builder Pro. When I try and connect an opt-in form to our Mailchimp account I am getting the error "timeout-or-duplicate" error message. I have the correct API key and list id. Suggestions?

Thanks

I have an Opt-In Form disabled currently in the Page Builder "Home" page in the NEWSLETTER section - the last Addon.

Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet.

I have checked your home page addon with my mailchimp credential and it works fine. I think your mailchimp credentials occurred the issue. Thanks

Mailchimp "credentials" - do you mean the API key and audience id? I have copied and pasted these into the fields.

Is there not some way to figure out what is going wrong? For you to tell me that it works for your account but it doesn't work for my account is absolutely no help to me!

So, I have figured out what the problem is with your opt-in form!

In Mailchimp, we had both the fields FIRST NAME and LAST NAME set as REQUIRED. When I removed the REQUIRED flag from LAST NAME which was not in the opt-in form your opt-in form worked correctly and submitted the data to Mailchimp.

The issue was having a Mailchimp field set to REQUIRED and not including that field in the opt-in form!
