Mailchimp unsubscribe issue.

Having been able to integrate mailchimp in one of my client's site, I've encountered an issue where an email was already unsubscribe and when i tried to re-subscribe the same email. Automatically the old information was  being pulled out.

Just so you know, that when an email was unsubscribed in mailchimp, it was not fully deleted in the database. Instead we can try to flag the specific member or email to full delete all the information from their database.

Here's how you do it.  $api->listUnsubscribe( $list_id, $_GET['email'], true ); 

You have to set the it to true to fully delete the information. Getting techie here :)

Happy Programming!

Domain and Hosting in Bluehost

I've been using bluehost a few years now. Soon I will be migrating this blog to bluehost, but I'm giving it a second thought. Although I know that bluehost is very reliable when it comes to speed and up-time, I'm concerned about the URL that's already been published using this blogger domain. That would be a lot of rework when it comes to Search Engine Optimization. But I will be uploading another site soon using Bluehost domain and hosting services. The reason I can't stay away from bluehost is that, the customer service is superb. I mean come to think about the technicalities of the servers and all. Almost all domain hosting has very reliable services when it comes to server hosting, but I guess the difference is their customer service. Their agents are technically savvy when it comes to trouble shooting customer's issue.
