Requirements

What is the plugin license?

• This plugin is released under a GPL license.

What is Mad Mimi?

Mad Mimi is the easiest email marketing tool out there. It’s built from the ground up to be simple and usable.

Do I need a Mad Mimi account to use this plugin?

Yes, this plugin requires a Mad Mimi account.

How do I use the `apply_filters()` functionality? (Added 1.1)

If you want to change some code in the widget, you can use the WordPress add_filter() function to achieve this.

You can add code to your theme’s functions.php file that will modify the widget output. Here’s an example:

function my_example_function($widget) {
    // The $widget variable is the output of the widget
    // This will replace 'this word' with 'that word' in the widget output.
    $widget = str_replace('this word', 'that word', $widget);
    // Make sure to return the $widget variable, or it won't work!
    return $widget;
}
add_filter('mad_mimi_signup_form', 'my_example_function');

You can also modify the error message by hooking into mad_mimi_signup_form_error in a similar manner.

1.4.1

• Added check for is_wp_error to prevent errors from throwing their own error as reported: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-mad-mimi-for-wordpress-mad-mimi-14-plugin-breaks-plugin-page-with-fatal-php-error

1.4

Lots of improvements in this update.

• Added option for adding text before form
• Changed method of accessing data from curl() to WordPress functions wp_remote_get() and wp_remote_post()- now if users don't havecurl()` on their servers, they still may be able to use the plugin.
• Added filters for text before form (madmimi_form_description and madmimi_form_description_[form ID]
• Added URL validation and sanitation to success page redirection
• Added basic phone validation to form submissions. Not strict, so works for international & US/Canadian numbers
• Added label to error messages; clicking on the messages will focus users on the field throwing the error.
• Improved error generation
• Improved speed of plugin by caching email lists using set_transient()
• Fixed success page redirection
• Fixed Undefined offset PHP notices
• Fixed display of HTML code in success message

1.3

Structural improvements in Version 1.3 are thanks to Leo Germani.

• Created a class, so (almost) everything is inside it. No more globals named $user or $api.
• Changed the way settings are saved based on the best practices:
  • Use of register_setting() and settings_field() (which takes care of the nonce and everything)
  • All options in a single database entry
• When displaying a widget, the plugin now checks if the settings are configured properly, otherwise it won’t show the widget.
• Added code structure for internationalization of plugin. Details to come.
• Wrapped “thank-you” signup message in <div class="mad_mimi_success"> for better formatting control.
• Added mad_mimi_signup_form_success filter for modifying the form submission message.
• Added rel=nofollow to the optional link to Mad Mimi.

1.2.2

• Runs a check to see if curl_init is supported by the web host; it’s required for this plugin
• Fixed readme.txt links to MadMimi

1.2.1

• Critical upgrade – fixes widget not displaying in Widgets page

1.2

• Added support for PHP4 servers. The plugin won’t have the user list management functionality, but everything else should work.
• Fixed potential error when submitting a form without a selected user list
• Added form id to input id’s to allow for better <label> handling
• Added notice for users without PHP5
• Added wpautop() formatting to signup success message, meaning that it will add paragraphs if none were provided

1.1

• For those experiencing the implode() fatal error (it even sounds bad!), this update should fix it thanks to an updated mimi_signup_lists() function in madmimi_widget.php.
• Added error message check to make sure the error message displays on the form that was submitted, not another Mad Mimi form.
• Added checks for whether or not there are any lists, and if not, add the contact to the All Audience List
• Added three hooks for add_filter(): mad_mimi_signup_form modifies the form if used by shortcode or in the widget, mad_mimi_signup_form_widget modifies the widget output (including before and after the form), and mad_mimi_signup_form_error modifies the error message.
