Why are all my new constituents opted out of emails?

Custom Cons Import offers the Accept Email field.

There's even some specific help when that field is selected: "Luminate sets to Y if email is accepted or to N if not. Flip or reverse this value if your database sets N if email accepted and Y if not."


It sure leads you to believe it works. Does it just fail or not actually change?

Or you could use the Cons API Update method and some JS or JQuery in a PageBuilder page to do them all.


I'd put all of the cons ids into an array, and then $.each through that to make each update.


Make that page Admin only, so the user has rights to update.



Or at the very least, you can use Excel with the concatenate and hyperlink formulas to add clickable links to each cons record in a Luminate Report. That will save you all the searching and opening of each record. Just click a link, check the box, and click save.


The URL to open a cons record in edit mode looks like this:
https://secure3.convio.net/ABC/admin/ConsProfileAdmin?op.editCons=&consID=12345678


So add a column to your list of bad users with a formula something like:


=HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE("https://secure3.convio.net/ABC/admin/ConsProfileAdmin?op.editCons=&consID=", C2), " Click Me")


I use this trick all the time with Luminate.
