MailChimp embeds a number of codes by default when you use their pre-generated “embed code”. These scripts are very useful as they allow error-checking, validation, and other custom messages that happen within your MailChimp subscribe box on your website. This is much more professional than sending the user to the MailChimp page for your list, which is ideally themed to match your page but still, not as professional.
What I just learned was that the reason for my JavaScript conflict was that I was calling jQuery and a number of other scripts at the top of my document. By moving them to the bottom, it allows the MailChimp scripts to resolve and then jQuery and other scripts get called last, which has allowed me to bypass the conflict so all of the scripts are now happy and playing nicely together! Hope this post will help save someone else from spending hours trying to get both MailChimp and their other scripts running together!
