How to sort, order and search for contacts

You can sort, order and search for contacts based on their status, tags and the segments they are in.

Sorting

Click on the up or down arrow next to the field’s name to order your contacts based on their values in that field. To choose which fields to display, use "table fields" button at the bottom of your list.

You can select to sort your contacts based on the following:

Subscriber's status – click on the “subscribed,” "pending" (if you use double opt-in) or “unsubscribed” labels to filter your contacts accordingly.

Segment – from the dropdown, you can select the name of the segment or segments you created. Once selected, you’ll view all the contacts that currently match the specific segment’s conditions:

Assigned tags – you can choose between the tags by clicking on the label with the appropriate tag from the dropdown. Select multiple tags to filter the contacts who have multiple tags assigned.

All the above can be mixed and matched to create specific target audiences.

Searching

To search for specific contacts, type their email addresses in the search bar above the list. The matching contacts will be displayed below automatically.

At the bottom of the list, you can access the preference dropdown. This will allow you to adjust your preference for the displayed contact details. To adjust the preference, tick or untick the boxes next to each option, and the changes will be made automatically within the contact table.

You can select the following options:

First name field – the first name field assigned to the contact,

Last name field – the last name field assigned to the contact,

Tags – any tags that are assigned to the contact,

Added – the time the contact was added to the list,

Last changed – time the contact was last modified,

Custom fields – any custom fields created for the list.

If you choose to display more elements than can fit in the contacts window, it'll become possible to scroll that window to left and right.
