How do I find my ConvertKit form ID and API key?
Your API key is on your account page.
To get your form ID, visit Forms => your form. Look in the browser address bar, it should be something like this:

That number is the form ID, in this case it’s 445667. Enter that number as the ConvertKit form ID.
How do I setup MailPoet?

Email signups are not working
Make sure your email form does not have a required field that is not displayed. For example, if you required first and last name, it will not work. Change your form to only require email, the rest of the fields optional.
