Email subscriptions and preferences for contacts / members
Wild Apricot gives you the ability to send emails to your contacts through the system - see Sending email blasts.
Sometimes due to your organization policy, privacy laws, or the contact's wishes, you may not want to or be able to send them emails. You can edit their email settings on the Email settings and log tab on their Contact card.
Editing email preferences
On the Email settings and log tab click on the [Edit] button for Email preferences to change what emails the contact can receive.
You will see the following options:
- Send emails per settings below - This option is selected by default. When this is selected, you will see the following extra options:
- Workflow emails - This option can't be disabled by itself, only by disabling all emails
- Event announcements - Receive advance announcements about upcoming events.
- Manually sent emails - Messages from administrators, newsletters and other important notifications.
- Disable ALL emails - This option will allow you to disable all emails for the contact.
 | 1. No matter what the settings are for manually sent emails, automatic emails that apply to a member's profile or membership status will still be sent, such as Renewal and level change notifications ('Email enabled' option controls all emails, including automatic ones).
2. Members can change their own Subscription settings on their profile page - See Member and contact - email settings. If they do so, their preferences are also changed on this screen. |
Editing subscription sources
Clicking on the [Edit] button for Subscription sources allows you to change the email subscription sources for a member (See: Email Subscription Form)
