Editing a List

Edit List Properties

To edit the details of an existing list, select the list and then click the Edit List Properties button from section 3. You will then be able to change the list Name, Category, Description, and recipient preferences that were entered when the list was created. There are also two additional options that are only editable on this screen:

1. "Convert to a regular list": This option will only be enabled for Smartlists. This will convert a Smartlist to a regular list.

2. "This list should be selected by default": This option will only be enabled for suppression lists. When selected, the list will be automatically selected as a suppression list in Send a Message.

When a list is renamed, the events associated with that list are also renamed, for example – “Opt In: <listname>”.
