Contacts

I am experiencing an issue where the "Contacts" tab in the sidebar-v2 menu loses its active highlight state depending on the smartlist URL casing. Here is the step-by-step behavior: When I click on "Contacts" in the sidebar, the page is correctly highlighted in the menu. The URL is: .../contacts/smart_list/All (with an uppercase "All"). If I click on my custom smartlist "Essentiel", the highlight disappears from the lateral menu. The URL becomes: .../contacts/smart_list/[my_smartlist_id]. If I try to click back on the default "All" tab from the top navigation, the highlight still does not return because the URL switches to lowercase: .../contacts/smart_list/all (with a lowercase "all"). The menu highlight only comes back if I explicitly click on "Contacts" again in the sidebar menu (which forces the uppercase /All URL). Note: I am using custom CSS, but this issue only happens on the Contacts page. On the "Opportunities" page, I also use smartlists/pipelines and the sidebar highlight works perfectly fine. It seems the sidebar-v2 "Contacts" menu item is strictly looking for the .active class based on the exact case-sensitive URL ending in /All. When the URL uses /all or a smartlist ID, the active class is dropped (hypothesis). This issue started happening recently, likely after a recent UI/routing update?

The phone number custom field does not format the numbers properly to display it like how a regular phone number looks (The built in custom field does this though)

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.

SUBJECT: Feature Gap in Appointment Payment Tab — No Payment Link Option & Risk of Duplicate Payment Records Dear Support Team, I would like to flag an important workflow limitation and a potential data integrity issue related to payment collection on manually booked appointments via the mobile app and the CRM platform. ## Issue Summary When a client is manually booked for a service appointment and no payment is collected at the time of booking, there is currently no way to send the client a payment link (for either a partial deposit or a full payment) directly from the Appointment's Payment tab. This creates a significant workflow gap and introduces the risk of duplicate payment records. ## Detailed Explanation ### 1. No Payment Link Option in the Appointment Payment Tab The Appointment's Payment tab currently only supports two methods of payment collection: Charging a card that is already on file for the contact. Manually entering card details at the point of collection. There is no option to generate and send a payment link to the client directly from the appointment — whether for a partial deposit or a full payment. This is a critical gap, especially in scenarios where the client is not physically present at the time of booking and the business needs to collect a remote payment after the fact. ### 2. Risk of Duplicate Payment Records Because the Appointment Payment tab does not support payment links, the only workaround available to collect a remote payment is to create a separate manual invoice and send it to the client as a payment link via Payments > Invoices. However, this introduces a serious reconciliation problem: A manual invoice payment is recorded as an invoice transaction , independent of the appointment. It is not automatically linked to the appointment's order or payment record. If a staff member subsequently uses the Appointment Payment tab to record or collect the same payment (unaware that the invoice was already paid), the system will record two separate transactions for the same payment — resulting in duplicate payment records for the same client and the same appointment. This is not immediately obvious to users, as there is no warning or cross-reference between the invoice payment and the appointment's payment section, making it easy to accidentally double-record a payment. ## Impact Inaccurate payment records and financial reporting. Confusion for staff managing both the Invoices and Appointments areas. Risk of overcharging clients or recording incorrect revenue figures. No clear audit trail linking an invoice payment back to its associated appointment. ## Suggested Improvements Add a "Send Payment Link" option to the Appointment Payment tab — allowing users to generate and send a payment link for a partial deposit or full payment directly from the appointment, without needing to create a separate manual invoice. Link manual invoices to appointments — if an invoice is created in relation to an appointment, there should be a way to associate the two records so that when the invoice is paid, it is reflected in the appointment's payment history, preventing double recording. Duplicate payment safeguard — introduce a warning or flag when a payment is about to be recorded against an appointment that already has an associated paid invoice for the same amount. I hope this feedback helps improve the platform's payment workflow. Please let me know if any further clarification or screenshots are needed.

Currently you can delete unused custom fields one at a time. However, there is a select option, but when you select multiple custom fields to delete, the delete function disappears and the only option is to move them into another folder (Contact Info, General Info or Additional Info) Surveys can get extremely cluttered when there are a lot of unnecessary custom fields (use case: loading a snapshot that has a lot of custom fields) It is time consuming to have to delete unused custom fields one at a time instead of a Bulk Delete.

The new notes are great, but they run into an error when I attempted to copy and paste text that has been formatted. I copied over a note from Ring Central's notes from the call, and High Level would not allow me to save it. It said it was over the character limit when it was 13,000, well under the limit of 65,000. I removed the formatting and it was able to save. The problem is the note is much easier to read with the formatting, and for me to re-create the formatting is a time-consuming process.

Hello GoHighLevel Support Team, I would like to report a recurring and critical issue that affects contact updates specifically on iOS devices (macOS and iPhone). A large number of my clients are experiencing the following problems when working on iOS: Contacts cannot be updated (update fails without a clear reason) After marking messages as read, they reappear as unread The contact update window sometimes does not open at all When clicking Save, the system returns a “Failed” message even though no required fields were missed I am attaching screenshots and screen recordings that clearly demonstrate these issues. What makes this situation particularly concerning is that: The issue appears consistently on iOS devices The same actions work perfectly fine on Android and Windows Most of my clients are iOS users, and many of them are facing this problem daily Because of this, the experience is becoming increasingly frustrating for them, and unfortunately, it is starting to affect my business. If this issue is not resolved soon, I risk losing clients due to usability problems that are outside of my control. I kindly ask you to prioritize investigating and resolving this iOS-related bug as soon as possible. This is a critical functionality, and its instability is having a direct negative impact on user satisfaction and retention. Thank you in advance for your support. I am available to provide any additional details if needed. Best regards, Diana Panaghiu Sistematic CRM GoHighLevel Partner

When the custom field for numbers is in a form, and the user moves their mouse over the field, it automatically increments or decrements the number that they entered in the form without them realizing the value changed.

Problem: When the Active Workflows column is added to the Contacts Smart List, not all of the workflows that are actually active are displaying for all contacts. For example, the list says that there are 2 active workflows for a particular contact, but if I click on that contact and look, there are 4 active workflows that are currently active. Why this is a problem: this is inaccurate data reporting and is preventing the data to be used to validate or correct issues. For example downloading the data, analyzing it, and then making an necessary changes....versus having to go into every single contact record and check (which is a huge waste of time) Expectation: data is accurately reflected in the columns in smart lists. That when columns are selected, the data populates quickly as is accurate, and the downloaded reports can be trusted and used to analyze business related questions and make decisions.

The new example data is an interesting idea. I understand and appreciate how it can help explain the functions. Please add sample conversations, notes, tasks, and calendar with appointments. But the samples create chaos in the account. Need an easy button to immediately remove all test data from the account including workflows, pipelines, social templates, etc once the demonstration/orientation is complete.
