Good Afternoon,

im having a problem getting the mailing list to work in 2.7.0.  I recently moved servers (both LAMP), and as part of the move I decided to move rebuild my developing site as I went.  This meant that the rebuild was on the lastest 2.7.0 build of EE (was previously 2.6.x).  I have setup the mailing list and form, however if I submit an email address it just reloads the home page and nothing happens.

I am able to add addresses directly through the Addon itself.

The site is running EE2.7.0 and Cartthrob Pro 2.3.6.  I have the .htaccess adjustment to remove index.php.

Any help would be appreciated.

I’m having the same problem on a 2.7.0 install. So do other people: http://expressionengine.stackexchange.com/questions/13777/mailing-list-module-not-working

Adding addresses from the control panel works fine. The {exp:mailinglist:form} tag seems to be broken in 2.7.0.

Home Ellislab fixes this one soon.

Ahh,  I was hoping that was the case, and not just something stupid id done 😊 Im sure Ellislab are all over the issue.  I think ill try drop them a report anyway see what happens.  Thanks for the swift response Jan.

I filed a bug report on this issue.

Thanks for the heads up, Jan.  If you folks ever run into something you think is a bug, don’t hesitate to post it in the tracker.  It will be seen much more quickly.

And this was indeed a bug- I’ve got it fixed up for the next entry and a patch outlined on the bug report.  And to save you a ‘click’- here’s the patch:
In system/expressionengine/modules/mailinglist/mod.mailinglist.php around line 162 remove the secure forms check- so take out the code below:

// Secure Forms check - do it early due to amount of further data manipulation before insert
   if (ee()->security->check_xid(ee()->input->post('XID')) == FALSE) 
   { 
     ee()->functions->redirect(stripslashes(ee()->input->post('RET')));
   }

Then on line 260, remove that other xid reference:

//  Clear security hash
  ee()->security->delete_xid(ee()->input->post('XID'));

Let me know if you have any trouble with it, but this should take care of it.
