Use the Mailchimp List Subscribe plugin to quickly add a Mailchimp signup form block, widget, or shortcode to your WordPress site.
After installation, if you already have a Mailchimp account, you’ll log in with that account and then proceed to configure settings.
If you don’t have an account, you can create one directly in the plugin. After entering in all your personal details, you’ll need to activate your account via an email that will be sent to you. Once done, you’ll proceed to configure settings.
On the settings screen, you’ll select your Mailchimp list, choose merge fields and groups, and configure other options. Once done, you can now add the block, widget, or shortcode ([mailchimpsf_form]) to your site. Typically, installation and setup will take about 5-10 minutes, and absolutely everything can be done via the WordPress Setting GUI, with no file editing at all.
