Can email subscriptions go straight to a database used with Mail Chimp? How do I manage emails?

Once my Joomla articles are duplicated to EasyBlog can I delete old Joomla Articles?

In EasyBlog I cannot delete Categories because it says I have blog entries in that category but when I go to that category there is nothing in it. Please advise.
Hello William,

I am not too sure if I understand you about subscriptions going into the database. Can you please elaborate more on this please? As for the issues deleting the category, you will need to delete the blog post that are stored in that category first. It's possible that the blog post is unpublished and you wouldn't be able to see them on the front end. You can find these blog posts at the back end of EasyBlog.

As for migration, after migrating the articles over to EasyBlog, you can delete those articles if you want but if I were you, I would keep those articles there for a while for just in case purposes. (Probably leave them as unpublished first so Google wouldn't index them)

Regarding the subscriptions I want to send my own emails newsletters and I'm wondering how to automate emails into either MailChimp or Aweber to keep in touch.

I found the answer to my category issue. My blog entries were trashed an not deleted. After i deleted them I could delete categories.

Hello William,

You can actually integrate with Mailchimp from within EasyBlog under the Notifications settings. After integrating, when a user subscribes to the blog, their email will be sent to Mailchimp and Mailchimp would add them into the respective newsletter list. Then, when you create a new blog post, it will create a new campaign in Mailchimp for you (Provided that the create new campaign settings is enabled)
