bjones1985 on "Using Ajax in Wordpress to submit a MailChimp form using MailChimp API"

UPDATE

added this to the JS file data: {action: 'mailchimp_submit', 'EMAIL': email}, and it now sends email notification saying you are subscribed. But it doe not add the emails to the list in MailChimp.

This is the function now

add_action('wp_ajax_mailchimp_submit', 'mailchimp_submit');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_mailchimp_submit', 'mailchimp_submit');

function mailchimp_submit() {

    require_once __DIR__.'/inc/MCAPI.class.php';

    $listId = '38e7d0812f';

    $api = new MCAPI('9100a95dd06efdbf58ec87bab613cee8-us5');

    $subscriberemailID = $_POST["EMAIL"];

    $retval = $api->listSubscribe( $listId, $subscriberemailID, $merge_vars = null );

}

Not sure why the emails are not added to the list in MailChimp but the confirmation emails are being sent out. Any suggestions????
