Lists vs Audiences Users not going to the right place in Mailchimp

Relisting as no response to original topic post….now 2 weeks old
My new members are not getting into the right place in Mailchimp.
I have followed the documentation rigorously. The documentation still talks about MailChimp Lists. As you probably know, Mailchimp no longer uses those terms. It is now arranged by Audiences, Tags, Groups & Segments. Does your code work equally using those terms?Your current Documentation (updated 29 may on mbrsolution.com):
Using MailChimp Interest Groups
You can specify interest groups when a member is added to your MailChimp list.
Add the interest group names in the list name field like the following:
List Name | groupname1, groupname2 Lets say you have the following scenario:
List Name: my-list-1 Interest Group Names: groupname1, groupname2
Then you would enter the following in the MailChimp list name field of the membership level: my-list-1 | groupname1, groupname2For Listname I am assuming that this is the same as Audiencename. If not then that’s why it fails!
The Groups in Mailchimp are listed as “group category” then subordinate “groupname” The group category is “Members” and the group name is “Current”.
So I have entered: audience | Members Current
New members are not being passed to MailchimpSo I suspect there’s something either in the List-Audience naming, or the taxonomy of the Groupnames which isn’t matched between SWPM and Mailchimp.
Grateful if you could advise whether this is the correct way to enter in the Member using audience, group category, groupname and perhaps in time update your documentation (and the field name on the Membership Level edit page) to reflect what has been the Mailchimp new taxonomy for some time now.
Thanks
