Does the BuddyBoss registration form update users already in MailChimp?

    I am using the MC4WP plugin with the buddyboss registration form.
    It works well.
    I have a question about functionality. About what happens when users use this subscription form who are already in MailChimp.

    1. If a user fills in the registration form and ticks the MailChimp GDPR box, and already exists in MailChimp, will his entry in MailChimp be updated (the tag added that is usually added to users who sign up this way)?

    2. If a user fills in the registration form and does not the MailChimp GDPR box, BUT already exists in MailChimp, will his entry in MailChimp be updated? Will the tag be added? Will they be unsubscribed? Or will the form simply send no data as they did not tick the box?

    Thanks

    Sam

  • Are you using the MC4WP integration?
    Eg MC4WP > Integrations > Custom?
    Or an integration that is build into the BuddyBoss plugin?

    Thanks!

    The integration is built into the MC4WP plugin

    MC4WP>integrations>Buddyboss

    Perfect.

    I currently don’t have the latest version of Buddypress to test it myself, but looking at the source code I believe the answers to be as follows.

    1. Yes, contact will be updated as the integration is triggered
    2. No, if the box is not checked the integration will not trigger, nothing will change (email will stay subscribed and tag won’t be removed)

    To double check this, you can go to MC4WP > Other, set it to “log everything” and then do a test registration to see what it did in the log.

    Hope that helps. If you have any questions, please let me know!
