Mailerlite and Contact 7

[djguitar]

Hi, I have been using Contact Form 7 together with the connector plugin to sign people up on Mailerlite. Now I’m running into an issue where the connector can’t use the API key. It simply times out. So people can no longer sign up.

Any idea why my site can’t connect to Mailerlite?

Will Email Forms ever connect to Mailerlite?

Thanks for any insights you might have.

Update

This is a follow up for anyone having a similar issue:
I heard from my hosting provider that the API address for the Connector plugin is in Lithuania, which they had blocked as they were seeing a lot of hack attempts on their network from Eastern Europe in general. They unblocked it such that the plugin now works for me.
