  Hi!

  You won’t be able to use the pop-up code from MailChimp. It uses some code that’s blocked at WordPress.com. You can read more about that here if you’re curious:

  Add Code to Your Site

  However, you can include a link in your sidebar to your MailChimp form. That way, readers can click the link and signup for your newsletter. There’s a really solid tutorial on doing that here:

  Can you give that a try?

  Hi,

  Thanks for getting back to me. Does wordpress block Aweber pop ups as well? If they don’t where do I paste the code?

  Yes – we block AWeber popups as well. All of these popups use an iframe or similar HTML embed code that we block. We don’t necessarily block the specific services; we block the method they’re using to create the pop-up.
