Selecting a template
Once you define a newsletter type, you are then able to select a template to apply to it, prior to sending a newsletter. This means that all draft newsletters created within a newsletter type will be consistently formatted. The templates are predefined by the web developer and control how the information in the newsletter will present. The templates may, for instance, contain branding and images and will define the style for the email. If no template is selected, then a default “unbranded” template will be used.

- For backward compatibility, each email is also sent in “plain text” format, which ignores the template, so people who can not view the graphical version can still read your email.
- To add, remove and edit templates, contact your web developer for more information.
- Each template contains an “unsubscribe” link, enabling recipients to remove their name from the mailing list.
