Step 3 - Adding Custom Fields to your Mailing List

As default when you create a mailing list it only creates the ability for you to add your customers email address, the format of the email to be sent (HTML, Text or Both) and the Confirmation Status.

To get the most out of your mailing list we recommend that you create some additional custom fields.
The additional fields we recommend to add are First Name, Last Name, Company Name and Company Telephone Number as this will help you at a later date if you wish to export your mailing list for certain conditions which we will cover later on in the exporting section of this user guide.

To add a custom field simply hover over the mailing list button and cick View Custom Fields then click the Create a custom field button Then type the name of the custom field in the custom field name box, select the type of custom field it is (for the recommended custom fields above you will need to use text for them all) Tick the checkbox for the Mandatory option and then click next.
This will bring up another screen allowing you to put in additional options, just fill this in as necessary and click next.
You will then be prompted to say which mailing lists this custom field will apply to. Tick the boxes for the mailing lists which apply and then click save.
