How Can I Clear Down All My Unread Form Replies That Have Built Up?
You can now also mark all replies in a form as read to focus on just new replies.
Go to Admin > Form Builder > View from replies > "Mark all as read"
In addition, if a form is set to email your admins, we now track that you've read it from your email client to keep the read/unread status in the system up to date which will stop the build up of unread replies.
Tip: Make sure admins allow images to display when reading the email as this is needed to trigger the tracking mechanism.
How Can I Exclude Form Replies From Admin Notifications?
You can exclude form replies from appearing in your count of unread form replies by editing the form and unticking the option: Show in header notifications?
