Step 1: Finalize Your Email Design

  1. Design your email in the editor. Use tables to create the layout, add content, and style your email until it’s perfect.

  2. Preview and test the email to ensure it looks great across different email clients.

  3. Once you're happy with the email, switch to the HTML view to access the code.


Step 2: Copy the Email HTML

  1. In the editor, locate the option to view the HTML source code. ("More Rich" > "Code View")

  2. Copy all the HTML code. Ensure you’ve selected everything!


Step 3: Navigate to Email Templates Settings

  1. Go to Settings > Audience in the system navigation menu.

  2. Click on the Email section.

  3. Find the Email templates listing


Step 4: Add a New Template

  1. In the Email templates listing, copy the Empty template by clicking on the copy icon.

  2. Go into edit mode for the new template you just created.

  3. Give your template a meaningful name (e.g., “Monthly Newsletter Template” or “Event Invitation Template”) for easy identification.

  4. Insert the HTML you copied in Step 2.

  5. Save your template.


Once your template is saved, follow these steps to use it:

  1. Create a New Email: Navigate to the email creation tool and select your template from the available options.

  2. Customize the Content:
