Members, newsletter subscribers and member messages

The Members menu holds everyone who registered: their details and activity, their permissions, the newsletter subscribers and the private conversations.

All members

Members › All members lists the members with username, e-mail, country, registration date, listings, purchases, rating and status. Search by name or e-mail, filter buyers and sellers, add a member yourself or open one to edit.

Members list
The list of members.

Editing a member

The member page has the personal details and address, a new password field (leave empty to keep the current one), the "about" text, and three switches:

  • Account active - turn it off to block the member from logging in.
  • E-mail verified - confirm the address manually.
  • Can sell - turn off to allow buying only.

The Activity box shows bids, items bought and sold, live auctions, rating, registration and last login, with a link to the public profile, and the Login logs box shows the latest logins.

Editing a member
A member with activity and permissions.

A member who has sales can be deactivated, but not deleted, so your sales history stays complete.

Newsletter

Members › Newsletter lists the e-mail addresses that subscribed in the footer of the website, with the date. Export them as CSV for your mailing tool, or delete addresses.

Newsletter subscribers
Newsletter subscribers with CSV export.

Member messages

Members › Member messages shows all conversations between buyers and sellers with the item, the members, the number of messages and the date of the last one. Open a conversation to read it.

Member messages
Conversations between members.
