How Can I Add an Unsubscribe Link to My Email Template?

On the signin.php page a link named Unsubscribe from emails can be found, which allows the affiliate to opt-out of the mailing lists. 

You can also include an unsubscribe link directly in your email templates, allowing affiliates to unsubscribe immediately from the email they receive.

Add the following HTML to your template, replacing the domain with your own affiliate frontend URL:

<a href="http://affiliates.yoursite.com/email-unsubscribe.php?usr=%col:username%%&eml=%col:email%%">Unsubscribe</a>

The placeholders are replaced automatically when the email is sent:

• %col:username%% - The affiliate's username.
• %col:email%% - The affiliate's email address.

When the affiliate clicks the link, they will be unsubscribed from marketing emails immediately.
Important Note:

• When creating recipient lists or saved search profiles for marketing emails, ensure they include only affiliates who are currently subscribed to receive marketing communications.
• Unsubscribing from marketing emails does not prevent affiliates from receiving essential system notifications, such as password reset emails or other transactional emails.
