  • 1.  Send only HTML emails

    Posted 08-05-2021 14:46
    Hello,
    I sent myself a test email and it came through twice: one was plain text and the other was HTML. I want all emails to be sent as HTML. In the KB, it said to select Email and then settings. However, I don't have email settings as an option. All I have under Email is: Invitation Lists, Event Emails, Session Emails, Planner Alerts and Registrant Checklist Alerts.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thank you,
    Pamela

    It seems that when testing the email, both versions are sent. When your event is live, the emails will go as you have set - HTML only.

    I think I can help. If you go to the event emails and click on the open email designer button (above the Getting Started text) - at the top left there will be a drop-down arrow - the invitation email will be at the top. Click on the drop-down arrow and choose the email you want to edit and then click on the settings icon to the right of that email. That is where you will choose HTML, plain text or both. However, I notice when I do a test I always receive the email both in HTML and plain text even though I select only HTML.

    Honestly, I keep forgetting about the stuff on the left-hand side. I'm learning though!

    Hi,

     

    You will control these settings in the email designer. Click on the gear icon and additional settings will pop up. Then from the list select the setting you would like to use for your emails.
