FAQ

How to disable the bar on certain pages?

For now, you will have to use a filter to disable the bar on certain pages. The following example only loads the Top Bar on your blog post pages.

add_filter( 'mctb_show_bar', function( $show ) {
    return is_single();
} );

Another example, this only loads the bar on your “contact” page.

add_filter( 'mctb_show_bar', function( $show ) {
    return is_page('contact');
} );

Have a look at the Conditional Tags page for all accepted functions.

How to add a name field to the bar?

You can use the following code snippet to show a “NAME” field in your bar.

add_action( 'mctb_before_submit_button', function() {
    echo '<input type="text" name="NAME" placeholder="Your name" />';
});

add_filter( 'mctb_subscriber_data', function( $subscriber ) {
    if( ! empty( $_POST['NAME'] ) ) {
        $subscriber->merge_fields['NAME'] = sanitize_text_field( $_POST['NAME'] );
    }

    return $subscriber;
});

KB: Add name field to Mailchimp Top Bar

How to hide the bar on small screens?

Adding the following CSS to your site should hide the bar on all screens smaller than 600px. The Simple Custom CSS plugin is great for adding custom CSS.

@media( max-width: 600px ) {
    #mailchimp-top-bar { display: none !important; }
}

Terrible

The Support staff are not interested in helping you, just marking their Topics as ‘Resolved’. You need to Hire a WordPress Developer if you want to get the full functionality from the ‘add-on’. I’ve spent 4 days wasting my time on this plugin and will never ever install this rubbish again. I’d give it 0/10 if i could.

missing GDPR support

This useful topbar does need to be updated to allow a required checkbox otherwise it’s no longer useful/legal to use on any website within the EU or any website collecting data from EU citizens.

doesn’t work

Hi, I just installed MailChimp Top Bar on my website (where it became a Bottom Bar), and it works just great. Setup is hassle-free, and it looks great without being too aggressive. https://www.microlinux.fr Cheers, Niki
