Hello! Has anyone built a social share bar into their invitation emails? We have a general email template for all of our events on which we'd like to include a "share to" FB, Tweet, and LI. I see this capability on the website but not on the emails. Any solutions? Thanks!

Hi Darlene,

Hope you are doing well!

You can add data tags in your email to have your invitees share the event to their social media profile. 

You can follow these steps to add the data tags in your email- 
Go to the event>  On the left hand side- click on Emails> Select Event emails> Select the email you want to make changes to > Click Design email> Click on the area in the email where you want to add the data tag> On the right side, under text box, you will see a Data tag icon (looks like a transparent luggage tag icon) > In search type ' Share' > You will see the data tags like {[E-SHARE ON FACEBOOK LINK]}, {[E-SHARE ON LINKEDIN LINK]}, etc. > Click on the data tag, it will show in the text box> Save.

Note- The details these data tags display could be of old event, in case the event is copied. So it is advised that you should make changes to the share bar settings in the site designer first.

You can then test the email to check if the data tags are working.
