Mailed Contact Counts in FeedBolt vs Keap
Sometimes, the number of contacts mailed in Keap will appear lower than the number of contacts that FeedBolt shows we mailed. The number we show in FeedBolt is the number of contacts with the matching tag – regardless of their mailability status. In other words, if some of your contacts with the tag are hard…
Improved Feed Errors and First Feed Entry
We now better check for and report RSS errors so you’ll know if your feed is invalid and why. For example, if the feed isn’t readable, has invalid XML, or is on an invalid hostname, we now say so instead of just reporting the generic error of it being an invalid feed. For new users,…

Email previews can now be sent to any email address and not just the account holder’s email address.

Instead of the preview being sent to the account owner who then has to…

Can I send my Email Broadcasts to a different Keap or Infusionsoft Email?
If you’re looking to send your FeedBolt post to alternate email addresses on a Keep or Infusionsoft contact record, Email Address 2, for example, that’s easily done right in the template you’re using for FeedBolt. By default, your email templates are sent to ~Contact.Email~, but if you’d like to send to another email address, just…
