How do I edit my saved template?

When sending a message using our Drag & Drop Email Builder, you have the option to use a template. It could be a plain template, an AWeber template, or custom designed template. In the future, you may want to update your templates with new information or branding while maintaining of the same layout.

This guide will cover how to access any saved template you have where to make changes.

Step By Step Instructions

  1. Start by going to the "Messages" tab and click on Email Template Manager.

    This will allow you to make changes to the look of your message in the standard drag and drop editor. Once you make your changes and save you'll need to apply the template to your existing messages.

  3. If you would also like to make edits to the HTML or CSS of the template, click "Edit Source" in the upper corner of the theme.

Once you have made your changes to the message and saved, you can apply that template to any messages you have made in the Drag and Drop Email Builder.

Note: Updating the HTML/CSS Theme will effect any template under that Theme as well.

What do I do if I need to delete one of my saved templates?

From within the Email Template Manager, underneath your saved theme, click "Delete". Once a template has been deleted from your Email Template Manager, it cannot be restored.
