Turn off profile update email validation

Article Last Updated: March 4, 2021

In version 6.0.4.1, we added email validation for users who update their Mailchimp profiles via a form. The user clicks to send themselves an email with a link to update their profile. This prevents people from updating other users’ profiles without permission.

However, some sites have use cases where this validation disrupts their workflow. In version 6.1 of the plugin we added a setting to turn this validation email off under Opt-in Settings.
