    Hi

    I have a simple C7 contact form. It includes a mail chimp subscription box. Everything works perfectly, people get confirmation mail and are added to the mail chimp list. I also get email saying the form was filled and it shows the various fields that were filled.

    My only issue is that in the email it does not show any mail chimp field telling me if the user checked or unchecked the subscribe box.

    The only way I find out is by going to my Mailchimp list or looking at the WP dashboard message inside Flamingo plugin.

    Is it by design that M4WP does not pass this info in the email I receive?

    My C7 form with MC4WP code looks like this-

    <p>Your Name (required)<br />
    [text* your-name] </p>

<p>Your Email (required)<br />
    [email* your-email] </p>

<p>Subject<br />
    [text your-subject] </p>

<p>Your Message<br />
    [textarea your-message] </p>

<p>[submit "Send"]</p>

[mc4wp_checkbox "Subscribe to our E-Newsletter, we won't be spamming you."]

    The email I get when the above form is filled looks like this-

    From: Obama Bush <[email protected]>
Subject: I am the president

Message Body:
Bow to me.

--
This e-mail was sent from a contact form on.....

    Note no mention of MC4WP in th email I receive.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi coprob,

    To show whether the sign-up checkbox was checked, please use the following in your email message body.

    [mc4wp_checkbox]

    That will print “Yes” or “No”. ??

    Hope that helps. If not, let me know!

    PS. Should you have a quick minute to spare, a plugin review here on www.remarpro.com would make us quite happy. ??

    Hi CopRob,

    That is because you should edit your email (the email that you configure in Contact Form 7) to include that specific line, it doesn’t show it by default. You can edit this email in the “mail” tab in your CF7 form settings.

    You can add the same tag to your email message setting as the one you’ve used in your form code.

    [mc4wp_checkbox]

    Here’s an example to clarify: https://take.ms/3gY6X
