Email Opt-In
Record email opt-in consent in bulk for volunteers who haven't yet consented — for example, those who agreed verbally or on a paper form during intake. Opting them in lets them receive email notifications.
Opening the Email Opt-In page
Go to the Admin page.
In the Volunteer Management section, click Email Opt-In .
Recording opt-in
The page lists eligible volunteers — active or prospective volunteers who have an email address and have never consented — showing their Name, Email Address, and Email Status.
Check the volunteers to opt in (use Select All to select everyone).
Click Record Email Opt-In for Selected and confirm.
The selected volunteers are marked opted in (recorded as staff entry, stamped with your name and the date) and begin receiving email notifications; they then drop off the list. If everyone is already opted in, the page shows No eligible volunteers.
This records consent on the volunteers' behalf, so only use it for people who have genuinely agreed to receive emails.
