Content Components

The following content components can be used for messages created in Design mode as well as in Source mode:

Note: When using multiple languages for the template/message and adding new content components to a language version, the layout of the new component is automatically reflected in all other languages. However, on request the content of the new component can also be copied to the other languages. For example, in case of an Image Component, the image is often the same across the different languages and can be replicated across other languages. This is possible using the 'copy to other languages' icon available from the component properties panel.

  • Content block — Inserts a pre-defined content block into the message. Content Blocks are created in the Library section
  • Smart Content — Inserts a dynamic block of recommended content into the message. Smart Content is created in the Recommendations tool.
  • Video — This inserts a video in the message. Fallback images and links can be defined.
  • Barcode — Inserts a barcode or QR code into your message.

 

Following components can only be added when in Design mode

  • Spacer — Creates empty space between components.
  • Divider — Creates a dividing line between components. The height and color can be set

 

When creating the text version of the message only the following component can be used:


Example : Add a navigation bar in your email/template with styling, links and user data
