Email template placeholders
The email template option in BoardEffect allows you to add or edit a custom email message. However, you cannot modify the placeholders in the templates. Placeholders are unique to each email template, and you cannot delete or copy and paste them in a different template. This topic describes each type of placeholder, including the template name in which it is saved.
-
On the BoardEffect home page, on the left-side Navigation Bar, select Site Settings .
-
Select Email Templates from the list of settings options. The Application Emails dialog opens.
-
Select the relevant tab to access the available email templates in that category.
-
To open the email template details page, select the relevant template name.
-
You can view the placeholders in the Email Body field of each email template.
Caution
Do not delete placeholders like %{book_title}. Should you delete placeholders, issues might occur with the dynamic content in the Email Body field when you send the email. To refresh, select Restore to default.
