Contact Management, located under the Site Management menu, is the sub-menu in which you are able to manage the Groups as well as the Contacts in each Group, which have both been generated by SignUp Forms.

To view or edit the contact information of a group, click Site Management > Contact Management > View/Edit Contact Data. This will bring up a list of all of your groups in the database.

You can delete an entire group by clicking the Trash Can / Delete button, or you can View the Contacts in that group by clicking the Magnifying Glass button. This will bring up a new page with the Contacts of that group in a list. At the top of the page (shown below) will be displayed the name of the Group you chose. Below that displays the number of contacts showing of the total amount (1). Results per Page allows you to change the amount of Contacts that display at a time (2). Each Contact in the list will have it's own Delete button and Magnifying Glass button (3). The Delete button will obviously delete that Contact from the group. The Magnifying glass will allow you to View and/or Edit that person's Contact information. Lastly, clicking Add (4) will allow you to add a new person to the group without having to go to the SignUp Form.

To add multiple email addresses to a group at once, go to Site Management > Contact Management > Import Contacts. At the top of the page, select the group that you want to import the emails into (1). You can also choose [New Group] which allows you to name a new group and import the contacts to that group. Then copy and paste the email adresses into the box provided (2) and make sure that they are separated by a comma or hard return (line break).

The first step is to export your contacts from Outlook. If you are not sure what version you use, you can open your Outlook and click on Help > About. Please follow the steps for either Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2007, then move to the instructions for importing the contacts.

9. Click on Save.

At that point, your email addresses should be imported! Feel free to open the contact group to verify that they are all listed.

The last option under Site Management > Contact Management is Export Contact Data. This feature allows you to save the contact data of a specific group as a spreadsheet. Clicking Export Contact Data will pull up a list of groups in the database. Simply click on the group that you want to export and click the Export button. This will give you the option to Open or Save the spreadsheet file. If you choose Save, it will allow you to chose where on your hard drive to save the file.
