Subscribing Anonymous Users -- When completing an 'inquiry form' a.k.a. [#1271694]

Hello - We are using Drupal to help run a Travel Agency Website.

Our sites does not make use of many authenticated uses, however when a visit arrives on the site and is interested in one of the tours/products they complete a 'form' this form is a themed node creation form that is available to an anonymous user. As we have different tours we have different content types each one tied to a different form on the site.

One of the common fields on all forms is "email" and "name". We would like to 'reuse' this information to auto-subscribe a user to our MailChimp list at the same time. Our desire would be that there would be a field in the content for "subscribe status" set by default to yes that a client to uncheck if not interested in our mailing list.

Then when they submit the form i.e. create the content node drupal will at the same time process the request to mailchimp subscribing them to our list.

Hope is clear. Thank you!

Sorry, but what's the question? The module exposes a number of MailChimp features programmatically, so you could certainly write some code that processes newsletter registrations when those nodes are saved. I can't provide more details instructions on how to handle that here, but most Drupal developers should be able to help out.

Thanks for the reply. Regrets the questions was not so clear. Was trying to understand if it would be possible (proof of concept) to add the users this way. Reading your reply sounds like a solid yes. Will talk with our developer helping on this project. Thank you again!
