Every email sent through the Brilliant Directories platform must include a link that allows recipients to opt out of the website's mailing list. When this link is clicked, the email recipient will be directed to the website with the "/unsubscribe" extension appended to the URL.

For instance, find this link at http://www.demobootstrap.com/unsubscribe.

The email recipient will be automatically placed in the "unsubscribed" list to cease receiving emails from the website.

**Important note: A parameter is added to the hashed version of the email address it was sent to. When the user clicks on the link and enters the email address into the unsubscribe form, it will only process the request if the parameter is in the URL of the page it is submitted from and matches the email address submitted in the unsubscribe form.

Unsubscribe List

Each email that is added to the unsubscribe list will show in the View Contacts:

  • Order by Newest First

Manually Unsubscribe Emails

Insert the email address into the Valid Email Address field, then proceed by clicking on the "Add Email Addresses" button.

Please note: This will not remove the email from the mailing list. If someone that is tagged as a silver member, they will still show on the silver member email list. By being added to the unsubscribe list, the newly unsubscribed member will be skipped at the time the email campaign gets sent out.
