Email Notifications and Templates

In this short tutorial, we will show how to use and adjust each email template found in the Email Notifications tab in the Administrator Dashboard.

Toggling the Email Notifications

You can toggle (using the toggle button on the right) which email notifications you want to allow. The next step will show you how to configure the message themselves.

Customizing the Email Templates

Using the built-in text editor, you can edit the content of the emails. On the top right, you’ll see the token system we’ve implemented which allows you grab details exclusive to that campaign. Just choose a value from the dropdown, and click “Insert Token”. This will insert that token in the position of your text cursor.

Check the screenshot below for the highlighted example.

To make sure this is all working correctly please make sure to switch the froala editor to the code view (using the code view button on the toolbar) and check that your token is wrapped with <tmplvar>. Wrapping it with <tmplvar> interpolates the tokens and without this there will be issues.

Please note: You can only insert <tmplvar> through the code view.

Check screenshot below for an example.
