  <div class="wd-col"><input type="email" name="EMAIL" placeholder="Your email address" required /></div>

Add the form to your website

  • Gutenberg: add the Mailchimp block and select the form.
  • Elementor: add the WoodMart Mailchimp element and select the form.
  • WPBakery: add the Mailchimp element and select the form.
  • Widget areas: add the WOODMART Mailchimp widget and select the form.

You can also display the form in a location that accepts shortcodes by using [mc4wp_form id="123"]. Replace 123 with the actual form ID.

The available WoodMart element settings let you adjust the form alignment, width, color scheme, and other design options. Configure form fields, audiences, messages, and subscription behavior in MC4WP.
