After creating a list you can import your subscribers or contacts using CSV file.

Things you need to know

  • To avoid duplicated email, we scanned the CSV file and automatically update the subscriber data.
  • Imported contacts are only subscribers therefor they have no access level to login in your website, except for users who are already registered in your website.
  • You cannot import a CSV file with additional characters or headers, please follow below instructions.

Allowed CSV Format

Using Excel, OpenOffice or NeoOffice

You should follow the format from below screenshot.

name: The name of the contact
email: email of the contact
1: Yes to accept HTML email (0 for text only)
1: Confirmed subscription (0 means unconfirmed and user won't be able to receive any of your newsletters)

Warning

The HTML and confirmed user (1,1), does not override the General configuration of jNews. It means that if you set to "Require Confirmation" in the configuration of jNews, importing your CSV with 1,1 pattern will not set your subscriber to "confirmed and HTML emails". You need to disable the option first and import your CSV to confirmed your subscribers.
