Usage of location and email-id in group membership
February 06, 2015, 12:31:21 am
Hey there,

while investigating how to target specific email-addresses when sending a mass mailing (as reported in another thread¹), I read the wiki article about CiviMail². It contains a section »Location/Email selection«³ stating that

a) group memberships may hold information about respective email and locations and
b) these are recognized when sending mailings

Indeed my 4.5.6 installation's db holds such fields:
Code: [Select]
mysql> describe civicrm_group_contact;
+-------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field       | Type             | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+-------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id          | int(10) unsigned | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| group_id    | int(10) unsigned | NO   | MUL | NULL    |                |
| contact_id  | int(10) unsigned | NO   | MUL | NULL    |                |
| status      | varchar(8)       | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| location_id | int(10) unsigned | YES  | MUL | NULL    |                |
| email_id    | int(10) unsigned | YES  | MUL | NULL    |                |
+-------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

I just can't find any UI for it.

Does anybody know more?

Thanks in advance // nielo

I would be very interested in that function/feature as well. If the functionality is there and only some UI is missing, I would appreciate suggestions for a feasible approach to add those.

Best Regards
Fabian
