Add new fields to a form

Article Last Updated: March 4, 2021

The fields that are assigned to a list are managed on the Mailchimp site. To add or remove fields you need to log in to your Mailchimp account and manage them there.

Please read the Mailchimp article Manage List and Signup Form Fields to learn how to add and edit the fields for your lists.

After you’ve added fields, they may not show up immediately in our plugin’s Form Builder. Our plugin pulls the information from Mailchimp and stores it for a period of time before pulling it again.

To get the new information immediately you will need to clear the Mailchimp API cache.

Go to Easy Forms > Settings

On the right hand side, under Additional Settings click on API Cache Settings.

Click the Clear Mailchimp API Cache button to delete the Mailchimp cache.
