To develop with Grunt place Gruntfile.js file inside the plugin root during development (/wp-content/yikes-inc-easy-mailchimp-extender/). The paths inside Gruntfile.js are setup relative to the plugin root, so placing it anywhere else without changing the paths will cause an error.

First, make sure you install the latest version of Grunt to the local project directory.

$ npm install -g grunt -cli

$ npm install -g grunt

Finally, run the install task to install the required dependencies.

$ npm install

[yikes-mailchimp form="#"]

• form - the ID of the form you want to display (required)
• submit - the text of the submit button below the form (optional - defaults to "Submit")
• title - display the title above the form (1 or 0) (optional - defaults to 0)
• description - display the description above the form (1 or 0) (optional - defaults to 0)

• A few users requested the ability to store their API key in a PHP constant, inside of wp-config.php. With version 6.1.2, users can now define a new constant inside of wp-config.php, YIKES_MC_API_KEY, and assign the API key there, which will then be used throughout the plugin. Note: When you define the constant, you'll still need to head into the settings page and update the plugin options.

Example: define( 'YIKES_MC_API_KEY', '12345679-us2' );

Display current number of subscribers [yikes-mailchimp-subscriber-count form="1"]

Display the current number of subscribers for a given list. Pass in the form ID whos list you want to display. (also accepts list="mailchimp_list_id")

If you want to use the snippet inside of your form description, you can exclude the form ID and list ID altogether, and the shortcode will reference the list associated with the displayed form.

Example Form Description: Join the [yikes-mailchimp-subscriber-count] happy subscribers who receive our mailing list!

which might display on the front end like: Join the 1,543 happy subscribers who receive our mailign list!

Since we've built out a few add-ons to extend the base functionality, we've also built out an API to allow users to rapidly define custom sections on the edit form screen. This allows you to assign additional data to your forms.

We use this API extensively to build out additional sections on the edit form page.

Example:

First hook in to the proper locations, and attach a function:

add_action( 'yikes-mailchimp-edit-form-section-links' , 'add_custom_section_link' );
add_action( 'yikes-mailchimp-edit-form-sections' , 'render_custom_section' );

Next , define your sections and fields by passing in a multi-dimensional array.

/* Add custom link to the links (next to fields & custom messages) */
public function add_custom_section_link() {
	// creating a new link on the edit form page
	Yikes_Inc_Easy_Mailchimp_Extender_Helper::add_edit_form_section_link( array(
		'id' => 'custom-section', // section id
		'text' => 'Custom Section', // the text that will display in the link
		'icon' => 'admin-appearance' // dashicon icon class
	) );

	// creating a new link on the edit form page
	Yikes_Inc_Easy_Mailchimp_Extender_Helper::add_edit_form_section_link( array(
		'id' => 'custom-section-2', // section id
		'text' => 'Custom Section 2', // the text that will display in the link
		'icon' => 'admin-appearance' // dashicon icon class
	) );
}

/* Add custom section associated with link created above */
public static function render_custom_section() {
	// defining a new section, associated with the link above
	Yikes_Inc_Easy_Mailchimp_Extender_Helper::add_edit_form_section( array(
		'id' => 'custom-section',  // section id (must match link id above)
		'main_title' => 'Main Section Title', // title of the main block of this custom section
		'main_description' => __( 'This is a custom description for the main section' , 'test' ),
		'main_fields' => array(
			array(
				'label' => 'Custom Field #1', // label text for this field
				'placeholder' => 'Placeholder Value',  // placeholder value for the input field
				'type' => 'text', // type of field (text,select,checkbox,radio)
				'id' => 'custom-field-1', // field id - determines how data is saved in database
				// 'description' => __( 'Testing custom description for field #1' , 'test' ), // field description
			),
			array(
				'label' => 'Custom Field #2', // label text for this field
				'placeholder' => 'Placeholder Value #2', // placeholder value for the input field
				'type' => 'text', // type of field (text,select,checkbox,radio)
				'id' => 'custom-field-2', // field id - determines how data is saved in database
				'description' => __( 'Testing custom description for field #2' , 'test' ), // field description
			),
		),
		'sidebar_title' => 'Sidebar Section Title', // sidebar title of the sidebar section
		'sidebar_description' => __( 'This is a custom description for the sidebar section' , 'test' ),
		'sidebar_fields' => array(
			array(
				'label' => 'Dropdown Field',
				'type' => 'select',
				'options' => array(
					'1' => 'one',
					'2' => 'two',
					'3' => 'three',
				),
				'id' => 'select-field',
				'description' => __( 'this is a select field.' , 'test' ),
			),
		),
	) );
