Email Design Fields

The table below lists the fields of the Email Design form and provides utilization guidelines for each field.

Field Label Utilization Guideline
Name

The Name field is used to enter the name of the email design.

Disabled

The Disabled box is checked when the email design may not be related to any email template.

Language

The Language field is used to select the language of the text that is entered in the HTML and Plain text fields. Additional translations can be added for an email design by clicking on the Add button (the button with the plus sign). A translation can be removed by pressing the Remove button (the button with the minus sign).

The default language is the language of the account. This translation cannot be removed. People with a language preference that is different from one of the translations of the email design receive the emails that are generated based on the email templates that are linked to the email design in the language of the account.

When a language is selected in which the Xurrent service has been translated, then the default text of the email design is automatically presented in that language. If a translation in the selected language is not available, the current English (United States) translation is presented in the HTML and Plain text fields to facilitate the translation.

HTML

The HTML field is used to define the signature text, as well as the styling, for the email notifications that are based on an email template that is linked to the email design.

Plain text

The Plain text field is used to specify a plain text version so that the email notifications that are based on an email template that is linked to the email design can be opened in email clients that do not support HTML.
