With Text In Church, you can manually create and remove any People records as needed. We'll start by going over how to add a person manually.
How to Add a Person Manually
To add a contact manually, click on the People section.
Click on the “Add New" button
Then you can:
Choose a profile picture (Optional)
Enter their first and last name.
Enter their phone number and email. Be sure to turn on the texting and email toggles saying you have permission to contact them!
Fill in any additional information.
Click “Create Person” at the bottom of the page.
One thing to note… Our system does not allow duplicates of an email or mobile phone number; it will alert you if it sees the email or mobile number already being used when you're creating a new contact!
How to Archive a Person
In order to delete a Person, first you must archive them.
No worries though, this is a super quick process and in case you accidentally archive someone you can always restore them!
To archive a Person, you’ll want to click on the People section on the left-hand side of the page.
Then you can click on the check box to the left of the person you are wanting to archive. After that, click the Archive button!
If you want to restore or delete your Archived Person Records, you can access your Archived Records in the Archive.
There is a Filter Icon to the right of the page, which allows you to filter Records by those that are Archived.
Once you’re in the Archives you can decide whether you want to Restore or Permanently Delete a Person Record.
How to Restore a Person
To Restore your Archived Contact, first navigate to People, click on the filter button at the top right of the page, and then click on the Archived option.
You can then click on the Trash Can icon with an arrow inside of it by the name of that Person in the Archive to restore them!
How to Delete a Person

Then, all you have to do is click on the solid Trash Can icon by their name in the Archive!
