I have recently jumped from v4.2 to 7.01. Still finding my way around the system.
One feature we had in the old system was phpMyAdmin where we would general a csv export of the patient data at regular intervals. We use that spreadsheet to collect the email addresses so we could send them practice newsletters using mailchimp.
Is there a way to simply export the patient emails in such a way like the older versions?
You should use the patient creation report to get the email addresses of patients. I could modify the report to provide the patient’s email address. Or, I can just build you a report, specifically for emails. Your choice. PM me if you want to discuss this.
However, it depends on who your hosting provider is. If you are using a Cpanel, you already have Phpmyadmin access. So you can go back to what you were doing just by navigating to where they have provided the tool.
