There is no separate page titled Create a List. Lists are created from the Contacts area in RaiseMore.
You can build a list in two ways:
Use filters when you want everyone who matches specific criteria.
Choose contacts manually when you want a hand-picked group, such as 10 specific people.
Option 1: Create a list using filters
This is the best option when the contacts share criteria such as ZIP code, email availability, tags, donation history, pledge history, or another field.
Hover over Contacts in the left sidebar.
Select Browse / Create A List.
Click Filter, then select Narrow records.
Choose the field, condition, and value you want to use. Add more filters as needed.
Review the results. The table updates to show the contacts matching your filters.
Click Save As.
Enter a name and choose List or Saved search.
Choose the visibility and any optional list settings, then click Save.
Important: Save As includes every contact matching the active filters and quick search, including results beyond the contacts currently visible on your screen. It does not save only checked rows.
Choose List or Saved search
List: A fixed snapshot of the contacts currently matching your search. The membership will not change automatically when contact data changes. Choose this option when you may need to add or remove individual contacts later.
Saved search: A dynamic set of search criteria. Its results update automatically as contacts begin or stop matching the filters. Choose this option when the audience should always reflect the latest data.
If you want to hand-pick contacts, choose List. Individual membership is managed on static lists, not Saved searches.
Optional list settings
When saving a List, you can also:
Choose how contacts should be sorted.
Split the results into multiple smaller lists.
Set visibility to Everyone, Only me, or Specific people.
Option 2: Create a list of specific contacts
If you want exactly 10 people--or any other hand-picked group--first create a destination list and then add the contacts to it.
Create the destination list from a contact profile
Open the profile of the first contact you want to include.
Find the Lists section and click the + icon.
Type the name of your new list.
Select New list "[your list name]".
RaiseMore creates a static list and adds that contact to it.
Add contacts one at a time
Open a contact's profile.
Click the + icon beside Lists.
Select the existing list.
Add several selected contacts at once
Go to Contacts and select Browse / Create A List.
Optionally use filters or the quick search to make the contacts easier to find.
Click Edit Multiple.
Select the checkbox beside each contact you want to add.
Click Edit [number].
Expand the Lists section.
Under Add to saved lists, select the destination list.
Click Make changes.
Lists can contain one contact, 10 contacts, or thousands of contacts.
Where can I find the list afterward?
Click Lists in the left sidebar to view and manage all saved Lists and Saved searches. Hover over Lists to open a specific list directly.
Frequently asked questions
Can I select 10 contacts and save only those people?
Yes. Use Edit Multiple, select the 10 contacts, and add them to an existing static List. Do not use Save As for this workflow, because Save As captures all contacts matching the current search and filters.
Will a filtered List change later?
A List is a fixed snapshot and will not change automatically. A Saved search updates whenever contact data changes the search results.
Can I manually add someone to a Saved search?
No. A Saved search is controlled by its filters. To manage individual membership, create or use a static List.
