    how do I remove the portion in the red rectangle?
    I saw a few different posts on coding manipulation but they were older posts and I'd hate to mess up any code.
    Can I just turn off the newsletter plugin in setup/configuration part of the amembercp? If I disable the module "newsletter" will it also disable the automated messages regarding signing up, etc.

    Tami,

    This is built into the core and will show with or without the Newsletter module activated. It is really in place to comply with SPAM regulations. You are supposed to give users a way to unsubscribe from system sent email. Each email should also have a way to unsubscribe in the footer, which aMember also supports.

    I think removing this could get you into a gray area with the legality of sending of automated email.

    Thanks. I understand SPAM regulations which is why I asked I think this could lead to issues for me, since users will think they unsubscribed but they only did from amember automated and not newsletters. I'll figure something out thanks.

    Tami,

    If they have subscribed to a newsletter, it will be also listed as a seperate choice. In the attached screen shot the user is currently subscribed to the "Test Newsletter" User would unsubscribe by unchecking the box. This is independent of the system emails.

    If version 3.x, you can edit it in amember/templates/member_main.html
    <div class="newsletters">

    Grant: I could do that and just manually update the third party which is fine filtering/exporting the list of users should work. now the issue I'm having is that when I go in with my test user, I check the box to unsubscribe but there is nothing to click to save the changes. I tried going to another page on the login form I tried checking then logging out but nothing seems to make the check register.

    David: it's v4 but thanks.
