Bulk update a single field from Smart Lists is missing
Full Dev Ticket A (Product) — Bulk update a single field from Smart Lists is missing Classification: Feature Request / Improvement (possible regression if it existed before) Title: Contacts → Smart Lists: restore/enable “Bulk Actions → Update Field” for selected contacts in subaccounts Summary: User needs to bulk update one contact field for a filtered group of contacts inside a subaccount using Contacts → Smart Lists. The UI no longer shows an “Update Field” bulk action (or equivalent), so the user cannot complete a basic batch maintenance task. Impact: Affects: subaccount users doing list cleanup, segmentation prep, migrations, or workflow-ready field standardization Severity: High (forces manual edits or external workarounds) Frequency: whenever bulk field changes are needed Steps to Reproduce: In a subaccount, go to Contacts. Open Smart Lists. Apply filters to create a target list. Select contacts (checkboxes / select all). Open Bulk Actions (or the top action bar). Expected Result: A bulk action exists to update a single standard/custom field for all selected contacts (e.g., “Update Field”), allowing value entry + confirmation. Actual Result: The “Update Field” bulk update option is not present, and user cannot find a supported method to bulk update one field from Smart Lists. Evidence (from transcript): User: “I want to bulk update one field… I cannot see how to do that.” User: “This feature no longer exists.” Workarounds Tried: Attempted Smart Lists + Bulk Actions workflow; could not locate an update-field option. Suggested Fix / Acceptance Criteria: Add/restore a bulk action: Bulk Actions → Update Field (or equivalent) from Smart Lists / Contacts list. Works for standard + custom fields. Supports overwrite (set value) and ideally clear value. Confirmation dialog includes: number of contacts affected, field name, new value. Admin permission gating if needed (but feature exists for authorized roles). Priority Recommendation: P1 Because bulk update is a fundamental CRM operation and the absence creates significant manual effort and errors.

Allow selective logging with Bcc email only
There should be a way, if you disable two-way sync, to just use a BCC email that will log the email you send to the proper contact based on their email. Why it matters: Logging into GHL to send every email is a barrier to logging conversations with contacts, but logging all emails to contacts is also problematic because it means other admins and some users can read your emails, some of which may contain sensitive data . I am the owner of my company but also the primary business development person. All my employees are contacts, and if I email them about something sensitive, I don't want it showing up in High Level. A potential solution: If 2-way email sync is disabled, allow for a unique (to the GHL user) BCC email, which will log the email to the contact in GHL. It would be great if this also allowed for a contact to be created (even though it will likely lack first and last name and other data if they are not already a contact. Benefits: This helps overcome nervousness about "everything" being seen in GHL, when all we need is business/sales related conversations, and also creates an easier way for people to log conversations on the go without needing to log in. I loved the inbox/conversations, and that I could reply from within it, until I realized it was logging ALL my emails where others could see them. Given the fac t that many business owners wear multiple hats (including HR) this is a bit of a liability. I hope this solution can be implemented quickly!
