is this a parse order issue?

I’m building a MailChimp subscription form onto a site.

So I have a standard page template

that contains the snippet {sn_newsletter} that contains a simple form that submits to this template

<?php


function storeAddress(){
 
 // Validation
 if(!$_GET['email']){ return "No email address provided"; } 

 if(!preg_match("/^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*$/i", $_GET['email'])) {
  return "Email address is invalid"; 
 }

 require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/mc/MCAPI.class.php');
 // grab an API Key from <a href="http://admin.mailchimp.com/account/api/">http://admin.mailchimp.com/account/api/</a>
 $api = new MCAPI('{lv_mailchimp_api_key}');
 
 // grab your List's Unique Id by going to <a href="http://admin.mailchimp.com/lists/">http://admin.mailchimp.com/lists/</a>
 // Click the "settings" link for the list - the Unique Id is at the bottom of that page. 
 $list_id = "{lv_mailchimp_id_{freebie_1}}";
 //$list_id = "bfc533630f";

 if($api->listSubscribe($list_id, $_GET['email'], '') === true) {
  // It worked! 
  return 'Woohoo! You\'re now keeping current with happenings at Greenview';
 } else { 
  // An error ocurred, return error message 
  return 'Error: ' . $api->errorMessage;
 }
 
}

// If being called via ajax, autorun the function
if(isset($_GET['ajax'])) { echo storeAddress(); }



?>

now if I hardcode the list id rather than call it from Low Variables, the form submits, if I use the Low Variable I get

Error: Invalid MailChimp List ID: bfc533630f

Any ideas?

<?php function storeAddress(){ // Validation if(!$_GET['email']){ return "No email address provided"; } if(!preg_match("/^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*$/i", $_GET['email'])) { return "Email address is invalid"; } require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/mc/MCAPI.class.php'); // grab an API Key from <a href="http://admin.mailchimp.com/account/api/">http://admin.mailchimp.com/account/api/</a> $api = new MCAPI('{lv_mailchimp_api_key}'); // grab your List's Unique Id by going to <a href="http://admin.mailchimp.com/lists/">http://admin.mailchimp.com/lists/</a> // Click the "settings" link for the list - the Unique Id is at the bottom of that page. $list_id = $_GET["mc_list_id"]; if($api->listSubscribe($list_id, $_GET['email'], '') === true) { // It worked! return '{lv_mail_subscribed_{freebie_1}}'; } else { // An error ocurred, return error message return 'Error: ' . $api->errorMessage; } } // If being called via ajax, autorun the function if(isset($_GET['ajax'])) { echo storeAddress(); } ?>
