    MailChimp's default popup scripts can break on WordPress sites that use jQuery/jQuery UI unless you include their embed code as the final elements before the closing body tag.
Including them in this way isn't always possible or easy with WordPress.
The code below is an alternative implementation of the loader that forces MailChimp's popup scripts to appear below all other scripts upon page load.
To use it, modify the baseUrl, uuid, and lid attributes with the ones from the original popup script that MailChimp supplies.
<script>
    // Fill in your MailChimp popup settings below.
    // These can be found in the original popup script from MailChimp.
    var mailchimpConfig = {
        baseUrl: 'mc.us1.list-manage.com',
        uuid: 'a123456789abcdefghijklmno',
        lid: '1abc12345a'
    };
    
    // No edits below this line are required
    var chimpPopupLoader = document.createElement("script");
    chimpPopupLoader.src = '//s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.mailchimp.com/js/signup-forms/popup/embed.js';
    chimpPopupLoader.setAttribute('data-dojo-config', 'usePlainJson: true, isDebug: false');

    var chimpPopup = document.createElement("script");
    chimpPopup.appendChild(document.createTextNode('require(["mojo/signup-forms/Loader"], function (L) { L.start({"baseUrl": "' +  mailchimpConfig.baseUrl + '", "uuid": "' + mailchimpConfig.uuid + '", "lid": "' + mailchimpConfig.lid + '"})});'));

    jQuery(function ($) {
        document.body.appendChild(chimpPopupLoader);

        $(window).load(function () {
            document.body.appendChild(chimpPopup);
        });

    });
</script>
Note that MailChimp stores a cookie for one year to prevent you from seeing a pop-up repeatedly after you've closed it or filled it in. If you're testing this you may need to clear cookies, use a different browser, or open a private browser window to see the form on repeat visits after dismissing or filling it.
