When users receive their newsletters via email, at the bottom of it, there is a link that says “remove me”. When a user clicks it it brings them to a page that says… You have been unsubscribed You have been unsubscribed from these emails. Please take a moment and let us know why you unsubscribe. Where from our Active Campaign dashboard can we go to modify that text…?

I have an automation that onboards people into a course. They choose their start date in the first email of the automation. After that, the wait actions are all set up to be based on the start date. They need to get all the emails, no matter what day they choose as their start date. It could be 30 days from now or 2. I have the start date set as a custom field. The first wait action seems to be the biggest problem. It’s set at Start Date is after Current Day plus 15. The other wait actions are the same, just varying the number of days before the start date. All accounts are getting stuck at that first wait action and not moving forward. I’ve tried changing the “after” bit to “is on or after” and “is on or before” and “before” and that does nothing. Nothing will move these people forward, except the start date being exactly 15 days out. Am I not putting the wait action in right or does this have something to do with them choosing a start date after they end up at that first wait action?

Hello, Does anyone know if we can use automations to update fields by append new data values but still retaining the old data on the same field. For example, Field “Favorite Colors” has a Value of: Red Contact fills out another form indicate different “Favorite Color” is: Blue Normally the New value would overwrite past value, but I want to know if we can just have it append to look like: Favorite colors: Red || Blue I know when you import you can store Multiply values in one field, but in automations you only have the option to update new value or clear the past value. Thanks in advance! If not possible in Active Campaign that is okay, as I do have a backup plan via 3rd party integration.

How can I view and/or export site tracking data for all contacts or lists?

Hey guys, I want to start an automation when someone buys a digital product on our website. They should receive an email with the next steps do download our app. I tried to connect the mollie payment with activecampaign through zapier but Mollie doesn’t collect emailadresses.

Hello, I need your help. I create a group with 1 user. I would like this user to manage the deals section. When the contact appears in the pipeline the user clicks on the new contact to see the contacts details. On this stage the user can also click on contacts name on the right side of the screen and the contact details opens again in lists section and this time the user can see much more details from the contact such as tags, lists, automations… Is there any way to set permissions that way that the user can not see tags, lists, automations associated with the contact? All checks that I made when allowing access are at Info / lists and at Permissions / Deals / Enable group access to all deals. I tryed to solve that issue to uncheck the permission to the list and leave only the check at Permissions / Deals / enable group access to all deals. In this situation the user can not see the contacts name. Thanks for your help. Iztok

Hey everyone! 👋 I’m diving into the world of lead magnets and could use some wisdom from the pros! I’ve crafted this awesome white paper, but I’m scratching my head on the technical side of things. My main question: What’s the best way to redirect someone after they click “download” on a white paper? 🤔 I’ve heard about creating thank you pages, but I’ve got a few concerns: Won’t this slow down my site’s load time? If I end up with multiple white papers, do I need separate thank you pages for each one? Has anyone found a slick solution for this? Maybe a way to handle redirects without bloating the site? I’m all ears for your experiences - the good, the bad, and the “oh no, don’t do what I did” stories! 😅 If you’ve got any clever code snippets or killer tutorials that helped you conquer this, I’d be over the moon! 🌙 Thanks a million in advance - you folks are the real MVPs! 🏆 Vincent

I can not figure out what is going on with my automation. it is a 3 step welcome email/autonation and I can not get it to work. I can manually send emails out from my contact list but it appears it is the automation part that is now working.

Hey, I have a super-signature at the bottom of my email campaigns. The goal is to get leads to reply with either “STORY”, “CCO”, or “MACHINE”. Then depending on what they reply with, I want an automation that automatically sends the corrosponding link. i.e. My campaign → prospect replies “STORY” → I automatically send link to the story YT video My campaign → prospect replies “CCO” → I automatically send link to the sales page of this offer. My campaign → prospect replies “MACHINE” → I automatically send the link to a DIFFERENT landing page. What I’ve ALREADY tried: I’ve already tried to start an automation with the “replies to an email trigger”, and then create an IF/ELSE condition set to “if they reply to an email, then do this”. BUT, the problem is… I want to reply to leads DEPENDING on the content inside of THEIR reply (like “STORY” or “CCO” or “MACHINE”) How can I setup an autoresponder to send certain links to leads who reply with a certain keyword? Your help is much appreciated,

We have an automation setup so that they will automatically receive their first email when a new contact is added. However, sometimes it seems like the email isn’t received right away. Is there some delay in when the emails are sent out from activecampaign? We do not have a delay added within the automation for the first email. Thanks

Is it possible to add a new client to an existing active automation but not at the beginning of the automation, but at a specific stage of the automation. For context - I started a weekly email delivery (not automated) to my new membership in May, 2024, when I was first building out the content, now I want to focus on bringing in more members and create a weekly automated email so i don’t have to send them manually to the original group and the new members. (trying to create a simpler and time-freedom delivery) If I set up an automated series of emails to be delivered weekly when someone NEW registers, how can I include the existing members without them getting the earlier emails that new members will get ? Is this even possible? I would be hugely grateful for your insights and how to’s. Thanks, Anna
