Static content source: Edit placeholders

Here is where you decide which content placeholders your editors can see later in the mailing and what they are called.

Step by step

1. Open the "Edit placeholders" workflow step in the "Static content" navigation item.

   

   Based on your restrictions from the Pre-select and Filter workflow steps, you can see which content placeholders your editors currently see in the mailing editor, and what they are called.

2. Still too many content placeholders? Deselect all content placeholders that are not relevant. Ideally, your editors will only see the information they need to edit their mailing.

3. Are your placeholder names not easy to understand? If the placeholder names from your content source are not easily understood, you can enter a descriptive name for your content placeholders as "Name in mailing editor." As an alternative, you can also specify the placeholder name in another language. That way, your editors will know right away what it's all about.

   

   Your editors will see the placeholder name when inserting external content into the mailing editor.

   

4. Click Save.

5. Click Approve.

• You have narrowed down the placeholders from your content source and renamed them, so they are easy to understand.

Next step

• Use the external content in your mailings.
• Share your external content by clicking the "Share" icon in the content source overview table. You can only share content sources that have been approved.
