Hi there, I have a large group of contacts that I have entered into a a new 'list'. How do I remove these contacts from the group they were in previously? There are 1,000 contacts on this new list. But they are also on a 5,000 strong list that I no longer wish them to be on. Is there a quick and easy way to remove them from their old group? I don't want to have to go through them all individually! Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hello @user644747 ,

 

Go into your new list, and click the top-most checkmark box to select-all. Click Actions at the top, and select Remove from list. Select the old list, and confirm the removal of those contacts in your new list.

 

For step-by-step and visual guidance, please see our main article on removing contacts from lists, also available via the Help tab in your account.
