Editing a contact

You can edit a contact's information at any time to update their details or add new details or custom fields that are relevant to them.

To edit a contact:

Go to Contacts in your site's dashboard.
Click the More Actions icon next to a contact and select Edit.
Edit the contact's information.
(Optional): Click Add New Field at the bottom to add a new information field such as phone number, email, birthday. You can also create a custom field.

Merging contacts

If the same person uses different contact information on your site, it's possible that duplicate contacts can get created. You can merge up to 5 contacts into 1. The contact card displays information from all the merged contacts, including labels and activity data.

To merge contacts:

Go to Contacts in your site's dashboard.
Select the checkbox next to the contacts you want to merge.
Click Merge at the top of the contact list.
View the main contact and contact to be merged. If you need to swap them, click Make Main Contact under the merged contact. If one contact is a site member, it must remain the main contact.
