The My Subscriptions page of the Portal allows a logged-in user to:

• View all Publications available online.
• View their current Subscriptions.
• Subscribe to new Publications by checking the Subscribed box.
• Unsubscribe from current Publications by unchecking the Subscribed box.

• Opt-out of all emails (which updates the Bulk Email Opt-Out field on the Contact record).

Initial Setup

A SPoC must place the navigation link to My Subscriptions (my_subscriptions.aspx) in the desired place on your Portal skin. If desired, you can place the link on your church website. You can also send a message using the "My Subscriptions" snippet to allow congregation members to access this page.

   • Available Online: must be set to True in order for the Publication to appear on My Subscriptions.
   • Online Sort Order: if the Publication is available online, indicating a number here determines the order the Publication appears on the My Subscriptions page. Publications on My Subscriptions are ordered lowest number to highest number.
