What are the steps to connect Mailchimp signup forms to a website on Webflow?

TL;DR
  • Create a Mailchimp signup form, copy the HTML code, and embed it in Webflow using the Embed element.
  • Customize the form's styling in Webflow to match your site and test the form by publishing your site and verifying signups in Mailchimp.

To seamlessly integrate Mailchimp signup forms into your Webflow website, follow these steps to connect the two platforms effectively.

​

1. Create a Mailchimp Signup Form

  • Log into Mailchimp and navigate to the Audience tab.
  • Select Signup forms and choose Embedded forms.
  • Customize your form's style and fields as desired.
  • Copy the provided HTML code for the form.

​

2. Add or Embed Form Code in Webflow

  • Open your Webflow project where you want to integrate the Mailchimp form.
  • Navigate to the Designer view and choose the appropriate page or section.
  • Use the Embed element from the Add panel (press A on your keyboard) and place it on your page.
  • Paste the Mailchimp HTML code into the Embed settings.
  • Save & close the embed settings.

​

3. Customize Form Styling

  • Use Webflow's Designer to adjust the styling of your embedded form using custom CSS.
  • Ensure the form looks cohesive with the rest of your site's design.
  • You may need to adjust the form container's size, margins, or padding to suit your layout.

​

4. Test the Signup Form

  • Publish your site and test the signup form by entering an email address.
  • Verify the subscription through the Mailchimp dashboard to ensure that the emails are being captured correctly.

​

5. Troubleshoot Common Issues

  • Ensure that your Mailchimp API Key is correctly set up if using advanced integrations.
  • Check that JavaScript is enabled in your visitor's browsers, as it often affects form submissions.
  • Review any spam protection settings in Mailchimp if submissions are not appearing.

​

Summary

The key to integrating a Mailchimp signup form into Webflow is embedding the form's HTML code directly within your site, then styling it with Webflow's Designer tools. Make sure to test the form thoroughly to ensure proper functionality and email capture.
