Mailchimp Subscribe
WordPress has no newsletter block of its own. This one sends sign-ups straight to a Mailchimp audience. The API key is saved once under Settings, Mailchimp and never appears on the page: the form carries only signed settings. Pick the audience from a list in the sidebar, turn on double opt-in, add tags, first and last name, phone and a consent checkbox, and choose what happens afterwards. It sends without a page reload, still works without JavaScript, and catches bots with a hidden field and a rate limit.

Try it
On this demo site the Mailchimp account is not connected, so a real sign-up ends with the general error message. Every other check (an empty or invalid email, a missing name, the consent box) works as it would on a live site.
