    hi, i have a simple newsletter signup form on my page generated by mailchimp plugin.
    after i subscribe to the newsletter, every time that i reload the home page will appear a popup where is wrote: “Confirm form resubmission. The page that you’re looking for used information that you entered. Returning to that page might cause any action you took to be repeated. Do you want to continue?”

    this is the form code:

    <p>Sign up for our mailing list to get latest updates and offers.</p><br />
<div class="with-icon full-width">
<input type="email" id="mc4wp_email" name="EMAIL" class="input-text full-width" placeholder="your email" />
<button type="submit" class="icon green-bg white-color"><i class="soap-icon-check"></i></button>
</div>
<p><br />
    <label>
        <input name="AGREE_TO_TERMS" type="checkbox" value="1" required=""> <a href="#" target="_blank">I have read and agree to the terms & conditions</a>
    </label>
</p>

    can you give me any solution to prevent the form resubmission at any reload?

    thank a lot

    This is normal browser behavior. After you submitted a form, if you click refresh it will ask you if you want to submit the form again.

    Whatever you choose (re-submit or not) will not make any difference for MailChimp so it can’t break anything.

    Normal website visitors don’t often click refresh after submitting a form.

    If you really don’t want this behavior, you can use our Premium add-on to activate AJAX submission instead of normal form post.

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