Expression Engine Mailing List problems.

    Hi,
    I am having trouble getting the Expression Engine subscribe to a mailing list functionality to work. I was hoping someone could give me an idea of what I am doing wrong.
    I have a mailing list called ‘mailing_test’. I can verify that it exists, has some entries and can have emails sent to it from the Tools > Communicate panel.
    I have tried to use the following code, taken directly from the Expression Engine docs:

    {exp:mailinglist:form list="mailing_test"}
            Join our Mailing List
            <input type="text" name="email" value="{email}"></p>
            <input type="submit" value="submit"></p>
    {/exp:mailinglist:form}

    On submitting this form however, the page briefly changes to
    {site_url}/index.php - a blank screen-, and then immediately goes back to the subscription page. The email is not added to the mailing list.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    James.

    Hi,

    I have the same problem and I already posted about EE2.7 and mailing list problems. I just read it’s a bug of EE2.7, resolved with EE2.7.1

    I didn’t have time to update to EE2.7.1 yet.


    cheers,

    Stéphane

    Thanks Stéphane!.
    I just upgraded to 2.7.2, and it solved my problems.
    James.
