data fields transmitted to chimpmail

When I upload my user data to chimpmail, which was downloaded via s2member, must I include all fields that were downloaded? How do I know what fields get sent to chimpmail for a new member?

Hi Laurie,

When you import a CSV file into MailChimp, you will be asked to identify what columns contain the Email Address, First name, Last Name, etc. You can simply delete/ignore all the other fields that are not applicable to MailChimp.

I did that. But when a new “test” subscriber registered for my blog, the only info that got recorded in the list was the email and the first and last name. None of the other fields, like Username and Display name, got recorded.

Laurie, so are you having this problem when a user registers and gets added to MailChimp by s2Member based on the integration you configured in the List Server API, or are you talking about importing the users list to MailChimp using their interface?

Hm…I could swear I answered this question, but I don’t see my response on this thread. The problem I am having is when a user registers and gets added to MailChimp by s2Member based on the integration. The username and display name don’t get saved in my chimpmail list.

Got it.

Could you make sure you have logging enabled, and then register a new user so an entry is added to the MailChimp log?

Post here the entry, x’ing out any private info, please. Thanks!
