Frequently asked questions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Are macros available with this integration? | Yes. You can access the same macros (e.g., username) that are in the YourMembership Bulk email feature. |
| Will I be able to send a bulk mailing through YourMembership? | This integration handles all mailings through Thrive Marketing Professional. YourMembership's internal email capabilities are deactivated so that you can send all mailings through Thrive Marketing Professional. |
| Will mailings be sent from the Thrive Marketing Professional email servers or the YourMembership servers? | Emails are only sent from Thrive Marketing Professional servers as part of the integration. |
| Will Admins have the ability to use the "Alternate Email Address" field for their mailings? | No. This functions the same as it does without integration. |
| When specifying the name of a target group through the YourMembership integration, will I receive an error message when the name matches an existing target group? If so, is there a way to tell that the target group name needs to be unique? | You will see an error message if the target group name is not unique. You will have the ability to continue to create the group, but this will override the existing group. Alternatively, you can rename the new target group with a unique name. |
| Can I use a Custom Field in my Personalization macros for my bulk emails? If so, how would this be setup? | Currently, you cannot use a Custom Field in a Personalization macro. |
| If a subscriber email address is updated in YourMembership will that address be updated in Thrive Marketing Professional? Or will a new record be created? | The corresponding subscriber record in Thrive Marketing Professional will be updated. |
