  I followed the instructions and on the widget I added the mail chimp link, but nothing shows up?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The Mailchimp subscribe box showed up for me after about 3-5 seconds on your site. Try opening your homepage in a private browsing window and let me know if it shows up for you then.

  It displayed in 4 seconds time for me. I am on a PC running Windows 10 and FF52 without any adblockers or browser extensions or browser addons.

  Hi there
  When i took a look, i got a popup subscribe notification. It looked like https://cl.ly/1Y2S17120K1O. It came along when i scrolled down a while. I am using Firefox Developer edition 54.0a2 (2017-04-04) (64-bit) with Adblock Plus active

  Did you try looking at it with a different browser than you usually use?

  best,
  dave

  @biblicalhebrewetymology thanks for confirming. If you did see it in an incognito window, there’s something in your usual browser (usually an add-on or extension) that is blocking it. You’ll want to have a look at this browser troubleshooting guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/

  Thanks Jennifer, yes I do have a pop up blocker, so now I am thinking not to do that form because others may also, I am trying to do a regular embedded form, can you check in 2 minutes to see if you see it, I am copying the code now.

  Hi there, The MailChimp sign up embed code will not work here on WordPressdotcom. That is the reason we have a special widget for it. :)

  What you can do is the old school method of adding a text widget and linking to your sign up page on MailChimp. Follow the MailChimp guide here: http://kb.mailchimp.com/lists/signup-forms/ways-to-add-a-signup-form-in-wordpress

  You might want to think about doing both.

  Sorry this got overlooked. A brand new problem is best added as a new forum thread.

  Are you still having an issue with this? If so, please check that the group you are posting to is public. If it is, give us a link to a post you have publicized on FB and a link to the post on FB directly.
