Modify the columns in the Contacts table

Choose the contact information you want to display, and the order it displays in, when viewing the contacts on a specific list or all the contacts in your account

Did you know? We're in the process of making improvements to the All contacts table and rolling it out to our customers. If your All contacts table looks different, view this article for modifying the table headings instead.

When you want to see all the contacts associated with a specific list, or all the contacts in your account, they're displayed for you in a handy table. The table has a maximum of seven columns, and you can choose what information displays in each column. You can also change the order of the columns so that the data is the most meaningful for your organization.

1. From the contacts dashboard, click the Contacts tab.
2. Click the Modify Columns button.
   
    
    
3. From the Modify Columns overlay, you can:

• Update a column - Click on an existing contact detail drop-down menu to select a new one. You can choose from name, address, and company details, custom fields, contact status, contact source, date added, and SMS number or status.
• Delete a column - Click the X next to the contact detail you want to remove.
• Add a column - Click + Add Column and select the contact information you want to display. You can have a maximum of 7 columns visible at once.

4. (Optional) Use the drag handle to reorder the columns. Columns ordered from top to bottom display left to right.
5. Click the Save button.
   
    
   
   
6. (Optional) Click on a column header to sort your contacts alphabetically by the contact detail. Click again to sort in reverse alphabetical order.
   Note: Columns for custom fields, and well as certain fields like Email Status, SMS Status, SMS Phone number, and Zip/Postal code, aren't sortable.
