Content

Making pieces of text in an email template editable with Blocks Edit

edit

To be used on individual HTML elements, making content within each editable.

• Use on 'img' elements to allow for uploading a new image
• Editable elements cannot have nested elements that are also editable
• For areas with multiple paragraphs, make the container editable instead of the individual paragraphs

Example

text

Allows/disables content from being edited in an element. Default: editing allowed.

bold

Allows/disables adding 'strong' element around content. Default: bold allowed.

italics

Allows/disables adding 'em' element around content. Default: italics allowed.

min/max characters

Sets a character limit for content in an element. Default: unlimited.

links

Allows/disables adding 'a' element around content for linking. Default: linking allowed.

For styling text links within content, just add an example link within an editable region and Blocks Edit will replicate the style for any additional link added within that region. The same thing applies for any specific styling for bold and italic text.

images

• When images in a template are replaced, they are cropped to the same proportions and sized to the same dimensions as the original source image
• Images are processed only when the dimensions don't match the template image; otherwise, the file uploaded is kept as is
• The source of each individual image can by overriden with the image's URL option

Allows/disables replacing an image. Default: replacing image allowed.

content variables

You can use dynamic email service provider variables throughout your template as you normally would.

saved content

Adding to HTML elements stores their content. This allows for importing an updated version of a template without losing the content that was modified.

• Each unique content piece requires its own variable name
• Make sure to use the same variable names in updated template
