Merging contacts with twitter handles
November 14, 2014, 02:29:20 pm
I'm trying to merge our list of twitter followers, particularly their twitter usernames, with our existing contacts. When I merge, it doesn't merge the twitter handle (being loaded into a IM space). It doesn't even give me the option. The contact that contained the twitter handle is simply deleted. I'm new to CiviCRM so don't be surprised if I don't understand the jargon.

What am I missing?

hi welcome Tom - it may help others if you can set up a couple of examples on the WP demo site so it can be confirmed there
