Simple MailChimp module


Juanzo

Recommended Posts

Mailchimp is a great service but we are using our own email marketing, hosted solution, which integrates with any MySQL database without any problems.

 

Hi Juanzo

 

I'd like to host my own email marketing solution for my clients can you give me any guidelines on setting up and what software you're using please it would resolve a lot of my client's problems with the high cost of emailing.

 

Cheers

Unfortunately I'm not using MailChimp anymore to keep adding new features, but anyone is welcome to improve the module :)

 

Hope you were being serious when you said anyone is welcome to improve on this! :)

 

I didn't "improve" on it as such, I was just getting a few errors with your module as it was with regards to first and last names which have spaces in, so corrected that.

 

Also switched to API v1.3 (that was hard work, had to change a whole number :-P )

 

Anyways, my changed file is attached here!

 

Seems to be working great again, thank you for a great module! :D

Terrific Flidiot, I have updated the original download link with the file you have attached!

 

Great! That will be $500, thanks :-P

 

Joking of course! I hope someone still finds a use for it! It is going to make my life much easier, that is for sure.

 

At the moment I was exporting CSV of clients every week or so to import into MC, but got tired of it. So again, thank you for this module! Really made my life easier.

Hi, is somebody available who can make a customization of this module for me.

 

I need the module to perform these functions:

 

1. When a ticket is created, add the customer info to MailChimp List A.

2. When that customer registers into WHMCS, unsubscribe him from List A, and subscribe him to List B.

 

Who can do it, just send me a quote, including estimated time.

Thanks ssdindia!

 

Everyone else, please let me know your suggestions. We are working with Admod to improve this mod and we are planning to make a good use of MailChimp's groups, so we can add clients to a specific group depending on the service they buy (eg VPS, Shared, Email marketing, etc.).

Well maybe im doing something wrong i need some better clearer instructions, i have the api key, i have the list id, all good up to this point.

 

Im not quite sure what an INTEREST GROUP is... ? the instructions say Product Group to Mailchimp List ID, so i presume its talkign about the Product Group eg Hosting Plans, then the mailchip id but what about this Interest Groups thing ?

 

Please help i really need to get this working as we use Mailchimp for our marketing. Thanks.

$product_groups_to_mail_list_map = array(

'Hosting Plans' => array(

'list' => 'd263fec356',

'grouping' => array(

array('name' => 'Test', 'groups' => 'Testing'),

 

Above is the code changes i made.... Test is the Group name Testing is the group name in Mailchimp Under Create Group. Hosting Plans is the name of my Product Group in WHMCS is this correct ???? List is the unique list id ...

 

Is this all correct, anything else i missed ?

Im using latest version of WHMCS... thanks.

I'm having the same problem, it would have been more helpful to add more information to the docs and not use fruit as an example..

 

Anyone got this working?

Hi daniel i did get this working with the help of the authors... what are you having an issue with exactly..... basically what happend with me is that if you have any custom fields in mailchimp settings such as HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT US for example... and if you have all the fields marked as REQUIRED you will have issues, check your activity log and you will see the errors if you post them here i can maybe help.

 

Try to uncheck REQUIRED in mailchimp settings and try again see if it works....

 

As mentioned the TEST and TESTING is infact the GROUP NAME and ITEM NAMES in mailchimp.

 

Goodluck.
