We are looking for maintainers for this module. If interested, please request via github.


SETUP
-----
1. Download and extract the ezchimp_X.xx.zip file into your modules/addons/ folder within your WHMCS directory.

2. Move the ezchimp_webhook.php file to your WHMCS root directory (eg: /home/username/public_html/whmcs).
 Test and make sure http://yourdomain.com/whmcs/ezchimp_webhook.php is giving a blank page instead of any
 errors such as internal server error (500). If it does, check and fix the ownership (should be owned by
 the domain’s username on a cpanel server for example), permission (try 555) etc so that it works.

3. Go to WHMCS admin -> Setup -> Addon Modules and “activate” the module listed as “MailChimp newsletter”

4. Set the WHMCS base URL (eg: http://yourdomain.com/whmcs, since version 1.6 only).

5. After successful activation enter you MailChimp API key, set access control below in the same page.

6. Go to “Addons” -> “MailChimp newsletter” and configure the settings as necessary.

7. Click on “Lists & Groups” in right menu to display all mailing lists and interest groups in your Mailchimp account.

8. Enable those you need to make available to your clients in WHMCS. Give an alias as you wish.
 If an alias is not specified, the name of the interest group (or the name of the list if there
 are no interest groups in it) will be used.

9. The “Status” link in side menu will display the subscription status of your clients and their sub-contacts
 to mailing lists and interest groups.

10. Use the “Tools” link to initially subscribe existing clients after a fresh activation of ezchimp module.

VERSION NOTES:
- Ezchimp 3.x versions doesn't support WHMCS 6.x
- Ezchimp 1.x and 2.x versions have been discontinued and will not work because MailChimp has stopped supporting
  their API version 1.3 which is used in those versions.
