Subscriber Lifecycle Statuses Explained

Icegram Express classifies subscriber availability using three core statuses:

  • Subscribed (Green): Confirmed, active contacts eligible to receive newsletters, post notifications, and automated workflows.
  • Unconfirmed (Yellow): Contacts who submitted a double opt-in subscription form but have not yet clicked their email confirmation link. Unconfirmed contacts are excluded from campaigns until validated.
  • Unsubscribed (Red): Contacts who opted out via your email unsubscribe link or list management page. Icegram Express suppresses future broadcasts to prevent spam violations.
  • Bounced: Addresses that failed delivery due to invalid mailboxes, DNS errors, or server rejections.

How to Manually Update Contact Statuses

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to Icegram Express > Audience.
  2. Select the contacts whose status needs adjustment.
  3. In the Bulk Actions dropdown, select Change Status.
  4. Choose the target status (Subscribed, Unconfirmed, or Unsubscribed) from the secondary dropdown.
  5. Click Apply.
