Email folders let you organize your emails into groups that make sense for your team. Whether you want to sort by ministry, event, season, or any other system — folders keep things tidy as your email library grows.

​
Creating a Folder

  1. Go to Emails and click the New Folder button next to the New Email button.
  2. Enter a folder name (up to 60 characters).
  3. Optionally choose a color to make the folder easy to identify at a glance.
  4. Click Create.
Your new folder will appear in the emails table alongside your emails.
You can also create folders from inside an existing folder to create nested folders.

​
Nested Folders

Folders can be nested up to 3 levels deep, so you can build a hierarchy that fits your needs. For example:
  • Kids Ministry
    • Weekly Updates
    • Events
  • Student Ministry
    • Weekly Updates
To create a nested folder, navigate into a folder first, then click New Folder.

​
Folder Colors

Each folder can have a color to help you visually distinguish between different types of content. There are 10 colors to choose from: red, orange, yellow, green, teal, blue, purple, pink, gray, and black. You can set a color when creating a folder or change it later by clicking the folder name at the top of the page when viewing a folder.

​
Moving Emails to a Folder

  1. In the emails table, select one or more emails using the checkboxes.
  2. Click the Move button that appears in the action bar at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Browse or navigate through your folder tree and select a destination folder.
  4. Click Move to confirm.
To move emails back out of a folder, select them and choose All Emails (no folder) as the destination.
Click on any folder in the emails table to open it. A breadcrumb trail will appear at the top showing your current location in the folder hierarchy. Click any breadcrumb to jump back to that level.
Folders are hidden when searching emails. Your search will look across all emails regardless of folder.

​
Editing a Folder

  1. Navigate into the folder you want to edit.
  2. Click the folder name at the top of the page.
  3. From here you can:
    • Rename the folder
    • Change the color
    • Delete the folder

​
Deleting a Folder

When you delete a folder:
  • All emails inside the folder are moved to the parent folder (or back to the root if it’s a top-level folder).
  • All subfolders are also moved to the parent folder.
  • No emails are deleted — only the folder itself is removed.
To delete a folder, click the folder name at the top of the page and click the Delete button.
Folders are a simple way to keep your emails organized as your team sends more content. Need help? Contact support@flowforth.co.
