Keeping an eye on your sending status

How to read the tiles, tabs and status pills on the Einladungen page and see who is still waiting.

Written by Max Weber

Who has already received an invitation, who is still waiting? The area „Per E-Mail versenden“ (send by email) on the page Einladungen (invitations) answers that at a glance, so you forget nobody and nobody gets contacted twice.

The four tiles at the top

  • Mit E-Mail (with email): this many guests have an email address on file. You invite everyone else through the link.

  • Versendet (sent): the invitation has already gone out to this many guests.

  • Geöffnet (opened): meant for emails that have been opened.

  • Ausstehend (pending): this many guests are still waiting for their invitation.

Good to know: The tile „Geöffnet“ currently stays at 0 in almost every case, even when your guests read the email long ago. For the real picture, please go by the replies from your guests rather than by this number.

The three tabs and the search

Below the tiles you filter your guest list:

  • „Ausstehend“: guests with an email address who have not received an invitation yet. Your to-do list.

  • „Versendet“: everyone who has been contacted or marked as invited.

  • „Alle“ (all): the complete list.

The search field lets you find a guest straight away by first name, last name or email address. The list is always sorted by last name. On your phone the email column and the preview are hidden.

What the statuses mean

  • Ausstehend (pending): no invitation sent yet.

  • Manuell eingeladen (invited manually): you invited this guest yourself, for example in person or over WhatsApp.

  • Versendet (sent): the invitation email has gone out.

  • Geöffnet (opened): intended for emails that have been read, though in practice you will hardly ever see this status.

Marking guests as invited

If you already invited someone on the phone or when you ran into them, mark them in your guest management. Under Gäste (guests) open the three-dot menu and choose „Als eingeladen markieren“ (mark as invited). This guest is skipped when you click „Alle einladen“ (invite everyone) and will not get a second email. In the list they show up in the „Versendet“ tab, but they still carry the „Senden“ (send) button, because no email has actually gone out.

Resetting an invitation

Sent to the wrong person or marked by accident? In that same menu under Gäste you will find „Einladung zurücksetzen“ (reset invitation). It removes both the sent flag and the manual mark, and the guest is back under „Ausstehend“. After that you can send them an invitation as usual.

Frequently asked questions

A guest does not appear in the „Ausstehend“ tab at all.
Then they either have no email address on file or they are marked as „Manuell eingeladen“. You can change both in your guest management.

My overview shows a different number for „Geöffnet“.
That is right, the card in your dashboard counts the replies that have come in there, so the yes and no answers. Same name, different meaning.

Where do I see who said yes?
Not here, but in your guest management and under Rückmeldungen (replies). This page only shows who received an invitation.
