Global Sender Email Address and Name – Emails Sent from WishList Member

WishList Member can send your members a variety of emails based on actions like registering for a level or confirming their access and more. These types of emails need to have a name and email address set as the Sender Info in order to identify who the emails are coming from. This is where the Global Default Sender Name and Sender Email Address come in. These can be easily set in WishList Member to let your members know who is sending these emails.

The Sender Name and Sender Email Address are used as the “from information” when sending any email notifications within WishList Member.

As an example, when someone signs up for a level, they receive the New Member Registration email and that comes from the Sender Name and Sender Email Address.

The Global Sender Name and Sender Email Address will be used by default, but there is also an option to set a Sender Name and Sender Email Address on a per level basis.

You will notice the Sender Name and Sender Email set in the Advanced Options  > Global Defaults > Admin Info section mentioned above is applied to all membership levels in the Advanced Options > Global Defaults > Email > Global Sender Info Defaults section.

The Sender Name and Sender Email Address can be changed in the Advanced Options  > Global Defaults > Admin Info section in WishList Member. The blue “Apply to All Levels” button could then be used in the Advanced Options > Global Defaults > Email section to apply the change to all levels.

The option to change the Sender Name and Sender Email Address is also available on a per level basis and that is explained in more detail below.

Set a Sender Name and a Sender Email Address on a Per Level Basis

The option to set a Sender Name and a Sender Email Address for specific Email Notifications for each level within WishList Member is available in the Setup > Levels > *Click to Edit Level* > Email Notifications section in WishList Member. The blue Edit Notifications button can be used to make edits to the selected Email Notification.

In this example, the New Member Registration option is selected for a level named Platinum.

You can change either or both fields to another name or email address in the User Notification tab within the popup.

You have the flexibility within WishList Member to decide how the emails are sent to your members.
