Managing your Profile and Subscriptions

Email subscriptions

Not everyone may want to receive all possible emails from your organisation. You can opt out of receiving some types of emails, while continuing to receive others. For example, a contact can choose not to receive event announcements and still receive all other emails. Contacts can also opt out of receiving any kinds of emails. They will still receive confirmation emails in response to specific actions on their part, such as membership renewal notices or event registration confirmations, but they will not receive event announcements and other email blasts (these email settings do not affect confirmation emails such as membership renewal reminders and invoices/receipts. Only administrators can disable those emails.)

Visual Help - Email Subscriptions

To change your email subscriptions, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your Wild Apricot site.
2. Click your name to access your profile 
3. Click the Email subscriptions link.                                                                             
4. Click the Edit profile button.
5. You can now indicate whether you consent to receive emails and which type of messages you want to receive: you can opt out of event announcements and/or manual email blasts (newsletters).                                            
   If you opt out of all such emails, they will still receive confirmation emails in response to specific actions on their part, such as membership renewal notices or event registration confirmations, but you will not receive event announcements and other email communications such as newsletters.
6. You can also enable or disable forum update emails from this page and change the frequency of the emails by selecting an option from the drop-down list. Forum subscription options only appear if you have subscribed to forum update emails from a forum page.
7. After you have made your choices, click Save.

By default, every new contact will have event notifications and email blasts turned on.

Subscribed means you receive those emails, and removing the check mark will unsubscribe you.

Interest Group Subscriptions

These are managed within the profile (see above) and determine what type of information and events information is sent to you. It is therefore important that this is kept up to date if you wish to receive relevant communications.
