# MailChimp for WordPress

Subscribe your WordPress site visitors to your MailChimp lists, with ease.

## Installation

The plugin is integrated into the theme so after theme activation you will be asked to install it. Or course this doesn't mean you have to use it. If you prefer other newsletter solution, feel free to use it. More info about switching to other newsletter plugin can be found below.

## Updates

As any other plugin from wordpress.org site, if new version of the plugin is available, you will be notified about it.

## Setup

After activating the plugin, its configuration page will be accessible in the WP Admin main menu.

For more information, please refer to the plugin page.
