Under Attributes, select the constituent attributes to appear as email preference options on the web page in the Include column. To change the text that appears for the attribute on the web page, enter it in the Caption field, and to move an attribute in the list, click and drag the dotted button on the far left. |
You can only use constituent attributes with a type of Yes/No and Table with this part. Table type attributes are available without being marked as one per record. If you recently added a new constituent attribute in The Raiser's Edge and it does not appear in the grid or in Sites & settings for you to make it available on the web page, click Refresh code tables in Code tables. This updates code tables from The Raiser's Edge in Blackbaud NetCommunity. For more information about how to update code tables, see Code Tables
Tip: You may want to consider including the same constituent attributes on your User Login part for new registrations so that users can subscribe to emails as they register for your site.

Under Opt-out checkbox, customize the instructions that appear for the opt-out section of the User Email Preferences form. In the Opt-out checkbox label field, enter the text to appear for the global opt-out checkbox on the website, such as “To no longer receive email from us, select the checkbox.” |
For verification purposes, if a user selects to opt out of a newsletter, the user is asked to enter his or her email address. If the email address is not registered with the program, the user cannot opt out of the newsletter.
Note: Even when a user selects the global opt-out checkbox on the website, he or she continues to receive requested notifications and acknowledgment emails.
