Greetings Team,

I was wondering if I could get some assistance with the following. We used to have a newsletter signup using MailChip. We no longer have Mail Chimp and the current footer.liquid file is calling out to Mail Chimp. I would like to make changes so that it uses Shopify native functionality using flows. The intended function would be to offer a discount for anyone who would like to sign up for the newsletter.

I would like to remove the following:

Email Address
{{ section.settings.para_text }}

I would like to add code to point back to Shopify native functionality.

Hey,

You need to remove all the mailchimp code from your footer.liquid

Everything between and .

and you can use this code as a simple replacement

Okur90,

Thank you, I tried your solution and it works. I have a follow up question. As you may expect, if I add this new code it breaks alignment and location of the window that currently contains that option for signing up for the news letter. The functionality is there but it does not look very nice. I realize this has to do with the coding. Can I please get some assistance with that? if not I am willing to hire someone for this quick fix.

Greetings Everyone,

I completed the changes and again it is functional but not esthetically pleasing. I will include the before and after captures. I would like some assistance with getting this to function and look the same. I am willing to hire someone to get this completed, can someone please respond.
