Common Reasons
They weren’t on the list
The person may not have been on the Planning Center list you sent the email to. Lists are synced from Planning Center, so if someone was recently added, it may take a few minutes for the change to appear in Flowforth. How to check: Open the list in Planning Center and confirm the person is on it. In Flowforth, go to People > Lists and verify the list has been synced recently.They are unsubscribed
The person may be unsubscribed from your organization’s emails entirely, or unsubscribed from the specific email category you sent to. People can manage their own preferences from the unsubscribe or manage preferences link in any email. How to check: Go to the person’s detail page in Flowforth and look at their subscription status on the Details tab. Check both their overall subscription status and their category-specific preferences.They don’t have a valid email address
The person may not have an email address in Planning Center, or their email address may be invalid (e.g., malformed or previously bounced). How to check: Look up the person in Planning Center and confirm they have a valid primary email address.Duplicate email address
If two or more people on your list share the same email address, Flowforth only sends one copy per address. The other person will show as “Did Not Send” to avoid sending duplicate emails to the same inbox. How to check: Search for the email address in Flowforth’s People section. If multiple people share the address, see Shared Email Addresses for more details.No-reply address
Email addresses containing “no-reply” or “noreply” are automatically filtered out.Troubleshooting Steps
- Check the Recipients tab on the sent email’s detail page. Filter by “Did Not Send” to find the person and see if they were filtered.
- Check the list in Planning Center. Confirm the person is on the list you sent to.
- Check their subscription status in Flowforth. Go to their person detail page and review the Details tab for their subscription preferences.
- Check their email address. Make sure they have a valid email address in Planning Center.
- Check for duplicates. Search for their email address to see if another person shares it.
