Before you go down that road, be aware that any changes you make to the plugin will get wiped out if you ever upgrade it.

In reply to: [Plugin: Mailchimp] Custom merge fields missing from WordPress admin areaWhen you click the “update list” button we will pull in current list information like the merge vars. Other than that, they are not updated automatically.

Include the javascript that the plugin generates, too. If you’re doing all this, though, you may want to either edit your own custom version of the plugin or grab the embed code form for your list since we can’t support what you’re suggesting doing.
Walking you through css and javascript basics is outside the scope of what we can support. If you find someone a bit more well versed in them, they can likely help.
You could also try the embed code for your list, though that will come with it’s only challenges in keeping javascript includes straight.
You might be able to use your own css to do that. Otherwise you can grab the embed code for you form and use that or try out one of the other MailChimp Subscribe plugins that work work like that.
There’s a Plugins menu in the WordPress admin area. Many plugins, like ours, puts the setup/settings page(s) under there.
You can do that using your own css and javascript.
No, it’s never been an option. You should be able to achieve that by adding your own css to target the submit button.
If you want that, grab the embed code form for your list without the javascript includes and it will work like that.
I’d imagine it’s something else using our PHP wrapper and either not checking for it before loading it or expecting to use a different version of it.
Like the other folks here did, the first thing to try is disabling plugins one at a time until it starts working. If that’s not it, it may require digging into the PHP error logs for you server to see if anything thing is being reported there.
The root issue there is that your Theme is defining the styles that are being applied to that, which is always going to be an occasional issue. In other words, even if I let you define something, your theme might still manage to override it.
The best thing to do is add css to something that won’t change between upgrades. That’s not something I can walk you through, though.
Turn off the “custom styling” option in the plugin settings. If that doesn’t look ok, you’ll need to style the form yourself to match what you want.
I don’t know anything about using WPML, but here’s how to modify translations for our plugin. Keep in mind that any update will wipe out changes, so if you make any it would be good to submit them.
@jbculpepper I don’t see a problem with that, so you’ll need to elaborate.
