Recipient “” has too many recent signup requests

Replies: 1

Hello,
The theme I have uses Genesis eNews Extended. I implemented the action form code from my mail chimp list. When I tried to do a test sign up I received the message: Recipient “” has too many recent signup requests. I’ve found that this may be caused when a browser auto-fills the fields. By default, the MailChimp signup form includes a hidden HTML field that’s suppose to trap spam bots that automatically fill out the signup form:

<!– real people should not fill this in and expect good things – do not remove this or risk form bot signups–>
<div style=”position: absolute; left: -5000px;” aria-hidden=”true”><input type=”text” name=”b_98b752164e5f27815c50336ea_245ab27248″ tabindex=”-1″ value=””></div>

The suggestion on MailChimp is to remove this code. But if in the plugin I am only inputting the action form line how else can I correct this?

Thanks
