README.txt in Mailchimp 7.4
Integrates with Mailchimp campaigns, enabling creating and sending campaigns,
and viewing statistics on those already sent.
## Creating Campaigns
1. Click Add a Campaign in the overview
2. Fill out the required fields
* **Title:** An internal name to identify the campaign
* **Subject:** Message subject
* **List:** The Mailchimp list to use
* **Segment:** List segment to use (optional, only appears if any exist)
* **From Email:** Email address for the campaign
* **From Name:** Name to attach to the 'From Email'
* **Template:** Mailchimp template to use
* **Content Sections:** Each section (if applicable) of content for the
campaign
3. Click Save as draft
Once saved as a draft, the new campaign will be available in both Drupal and
Mailchimp as a draft until it is sent. After sending, campaigns can no longer
be edited.
## Using Merge Tags
Mailchimp Templates use Merge Tags to load data from Mailchimp Merge Fields into
the emails. In the Content Sections area you will see a list of available Merge
Tags. While typing into any of the content areas, you can click on the Merge Tag
to put that tag in at your cursor.
## Site Content Import
Any entity on your site with a Title can be placed into any of the Content
Sections. Simply select the Entity Type, type in the Title to locate the entity,
and select a configured View Mode to include. The "Add entity token" link will
now embed this content at your cursor in any of the content areas. It will
appear as a long token surrounded by brackets.
If you are using a javascript text editor, instead of typing the token in at the
cursor, instead a text field will appear with the token, and you must copy/paste
the token manually into the editing region.
## Troubleshooting
### Campaigns, lists, or templates have not updated from Mailchimp?
Try clearing the Drupal cache and reloading the page.
### Cannot edit a campaign?
Check to see if the campaign has already been sent. Sent campaigns cannot be
edited.
