Advanced Configuration of the MailChimp App – Zoey Ticketing System

You can set different configurations for each store.

Just go to the store configuration by choosing it on "Current Configuration Scope"

Then you just need to uncheck "Use Default" and select your configuration for that store.

Note: You can do this with all the configurations.

Edit main and additional lists

General Subscription: It's the main list and the default of Zoey.

Customer Group: On this list box you will see if there are any groups on the list chosen for "General Subscription". You can select which groups the customer will be put into, if the field "Customer can change groups" is set to No.

Customer can change groups: If this option is set to Yes the customers will be able to change between groups, if it's set to No they will be added on the selected lists from the field "Customer Group".

Additional Lists: You can select for additional lists from your MailChimp account to show on subscription, the subscribers of these lists are going to be just in your MailChimp account (not in Zoey).

Notes: You shouldn't select the same List that you're using in General Subscription field.
Notice that you can select/unselect more than one list pressing the Ctrl + click over the different lists.

Show Original List Name

This option gives you the chance to show the real name of the General Subscription list instead of "General Subscription List" which it's the Zoey default text for the Main List.

Understanding the Double opt-in

The Double opt-in option allows you to decide if you want your customers to confirm the subscription or just save it without asking.
In order to change this setting, within your Mailchimp account, visit to System -> Configuration -> Customers -> Newsletter -> Subscription. Then, change the option Need to Confirm to Yes in case you want your customers receive and email to confirm the subscription or set up to No if you don't want this behavior.

Enable Ecommerce360

The Ecommerce360 allows you to follow in detail your email campaigns. By syncing your Zoey with MailChimp, you can track when people click from your email campaigns, visit your website, all the way to purchase. Even better, MailChimp then aggregates the information and displays it on your MailChimp campaign report.

You have three options Disabled, Referred Orders and All Orders.

Disabled: You are not going to use this functionality so no orders are going to MailChimp.

Referred Orders: Just orders with a campaign id referred to Zoey will be sent to MailChimp.

In case you want to send other Orders manually you can do it from Sales -> Orders, select the orders you want to send from the list and there you have a new action "Send to MailChimp", click on Submit and the orders are going to be send to MailChimp.

All Orders: All the orders in your Zoey campaign are going to be sent to MailChimp automatically.

By Cron depending on the Orders Status: This option gives you the chance to choose the order statuses (System -> Order Statuses) you want to send to MailChimp.

It's normal that your orders are edited after a few hours or days and it changes the status. Maybe you don't want to have All Orders in MailChimp because one of them were cancelled or held and this gives you incorrect Revenue in your MailChimp account.

This feature will run every hour (by default) but you can change this value if you want.
The file you need to edit it's app/code/community/Ebizmarts/MageMonkey/etc/config.xml
And the code it's this one below:

<magemonkey_autoexport_subscribers>
<schedule><cron_expr>0 * * * *</cron_expr></schedule>
<run><model>monkey/cron::processAutoExportJobs</model></run>
</magemonkey_autoexport_subscribers>

About how to edit the cron values see here

Max Orders by run: This sets the mass orders to export each time cron runs. The idea is not to send too many orders at once because that could take too long and maybe even crash.

Then you have to make some configurations in MailChimp to turn on the ecommerce360 on your campaign and for segment your list based on your customer activity.
The information will be in your campaign. Go to Campaigns select the campaign then click on "View Report" and click "Ecommerce reports".
Also you can check in Zoey for this information under Set-up -> MailChimp -> Sent Orders.

Configure Fields Mapping

Default Fields

The fields mapping is helpful to segment the information in MailChimp based on your customer preferences.
By default you already have a list of default fields that are already in MailChimp (just Email Address, First Name and Last Name) but for additional map fields you have to add them yourself.

Create new Fields

If you want to add new fields for mapping you have to make three simple steps:

Add the Field in Zoey: In this section click on the Add field orange button and fill in the Customer and MailChimp fields. In our example we named color and FCOLOR for the custom field which will represent the favorite color of our customer.

Add the Field in MailChimp: You have to go into your list and get into the List Fields And *|MERGE|* Tags section.

Click on Add a field, select the field types, and put the Field Label then a tag name (it's important that this field be the same in MailChimp as in the MailChimp field in our Zoey configuration)
In the example below we have created a new field Favorite color of type text with a tag name FCOLOR.

Define default names for GUEST users

If you allow guest users to register to your newsletter in your site maybe you would like to differentiate them from the registered users.

This configuration is very simple, just fill in the First Name for Guests subscribers and Last Name for Guests subscribers with the value you want to be displayed in MailChimp.

Subscribe On Checkout

In many cases, you may want a customer who makes a purchase to be registered for a newsletter.

We have created this functionality which displays a subscription segment on the last step of the checkout.

Here you have five options: "Disabled", "Enabled - Checked by default", "Enabled - Not Checked by default", "Enabled - Force subscription not showing" and "Enabled - Force subscription".

Disabled: You are not going to register any customer on the checkout.

Enabled - Checked by default: You will see the option to register to your default list and your additional lists in the final step of the checkout, with the checkbox checked by default.

Enabled - Not Checked by default: Exactly the same as the one before just that you are going to have the checkbox unchecked by default.

Force subscription

We created this option for those users who use payment methods which redirects them to an external page to fill the information for the payment, like Paypal or Amazon Checkout.

Enabled - Force subscription: This option forces the subscription but it asks the customer if he/she want to register for the newsletter in the success page.

Enabled - Force subscription not showing: This option forces the subscription without ask the customer if he/she want to register to the newsletter in the success page.

Define limit of users for Bulk actions

This options are basically to define the number of subscribers that are going to be sent to MailChimp in the Bulk Sync functionalities (Import and Export)
For these two options (Limit of Customers to Import and Limit of Customers to Export) you have a range of values that are:

100, 200, 500, 1000, 5000, 10000 and 20000.

When you create a new export/import this process is saved in the database and will be trigged depending on the configuration you have set for the cron service.
Every time this process is executed, we export/import a limit of subscribers from/to MailChimp for a performance matter and you can change this limit there.
Notice that this task could consume many resources and it's your responsibility to check that your server supports the number of subscribers you define.

Define the behaviour of the delete action in MailChimp

This option lets you define the behavior this extension should have when you delete subscribers in MailChimp.

If you want a subscriber who is deleted from MailChimp in Zoey just be unsubscribed choose the option Unsubscribe customers.
If you want this subscriber be deleted in Zoey as well ,choose Delete customer account.
