Behind the scenes of Opt-Out / Unsubscribe
April 20, 2008, 06:48:27 pm
We are using smart groups to dynamicly create some useful mailing lists. If someone choses to unsubscribe from a specific list or chooses to Opt-Out of all lists how is this notated in the Database and can a admin see thiese notations from CiviCRM or would they have to look directly at the database table?

optOut from smart (or any) group::
There is a field in civicrm_contact table named is_opt_out which is set one. You can see on contact summary page also in communication preferences, Privacy: DO NOT SEND BULK EMAIL.

Unsubscribe from smart group::
All contact comes under the search criteria belongs to the smart group, there is no entry in civicrm_group_contact table for smart group members(different from normal group).
when a contact is unsubscribed from smart group an entry is made in civicrm_group_contact table with removed status.
