Removing contacts from an automated series

SOLVED

I have a trigger series that pitches new contacts added to a specific list to become a member. Is there a way to stop them from continuing to get the series once they do join? Also, if you remove a contact from the list that triggers the series, does that stop them from getting the rest of the emails in the series?

 

Thanks!

Hello @NHAExecDir ,

 

To answer both of your questions: at this time you'd need to manually remove the contact from the series by removing them from the actual list that triggers the series for them. Otherwise the only other way to stop a contact from continuing down the series would be for them to unsub or be placed on temporary hold to prematurely end their progression through the series.

Do you still need to manually remove contacts? I see that this question is from 2021... have any updates been made?  I'd like to auto remove anyone from the series that has replied.  Manually removing contacts is way too tedious.
