Managing the Mailing List
|
There are two types of mailing list:- If your website has a News Infocast it will have its own subscriber list. This list is related to but different from the list of site members (where applicable) - subscribers to the Infocast don't necessarily have to be registered to the site.
- The other type of mailing list is for the Discussion Forum, where applicable. Some Discussion Forums are set so that items submitted to them are also sent to this list.
You can add and remove email addresses from either type of list using the Mailing List Manager in the Administration area.- Go to the Mailing List Manager section in the Administration area.
- Choose 'Add/Modify/Delete from List'.
- A new window will appear with several options to choose from.
- If you wish to remove an email address from a list:
- Select the first radio button that says 'Remove users from the selected mailing list' and from the drop-down menu choose which list you want to remove them from.
- Then choose the 'Next' button.
- The next window will show a list of email addresses. Use the tick boxes to select the addresses you want to remove from the list.
- Choose the 'Remove selected users' button from the bottom of the screen to complete the process.
- If you wish to add an email address to the list:
- Select the second radio button that says 'Add a user to a mailing list' then choose 'Next'.
- In the next window you can type in the email address and select which list you want to add it to, or you can use the search facility to search for a registered user to add. If you use the search facility, use the tick boxes in the right hand column to add the user to your list (remember to choose which list you want to add them to from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the screen).
- An email notification of subscription will be sent to the email address that you added.
