Pre-Built Email Templates
To help you get started sending emails with your LineLeader Enroll account, we've added a variety of templates that can be easily modified and edited. You can access the pre-built email templates in the left-hand sidebar navigation.
In the left-hand sidebar, click “Automation”.
Select “Message Templates”.
Selecting a Template
Once you’ve navigated to the “Message Templates” page, you’ll find a list of templates ready for your use. To select a template from the list, simply click on the name of the template you’d like to use, and you’ll be taken to the template editor page.
Editing Modules in Templates
Once you’ve selected the template to edit, you’ll be taken to the editor. On this page, you can change and update every section of the email template, from the logo and colors used, to images included, and updating buttons. The subsections below will show you how to edit and add sections to your email template.
General Edits
The main editor screen allows you to adjust the body of the email, for example changing the background color. (You can also change the width, but 600px is standard and probably shouldn't be changed so that parents and guardians who look at your email on a cell phone don't have a bad experience.) Click the "Body" breadcrumb and then click the Details gear icon, if the Details pane isn't already open.
You can also add new content modules to the email template by using the left-hand “Content” options, as seen in the image above. These can be added by simply dragging them into place, and dropping them where you want them in the email template. The options you can add to the email include:
Text
Images
Buttons
Dividers
HTML code
Video
Text Edits
To edit text elements, simply triple-click the box of text you wish to edit, and start typing. You’ll find all standard text edition options displayed right on the screen, from font selection, font color, justification, and so on.
You also have access to additional text editing options in the right-hand “Details” panel.
Image Edits
To update images in the editor, simply double-click the image you want to edit, and you’ll be given the option to add your own image.
Button Edits
Editing buttons in the editor is a two-part process:
Double-click the button you need to edit, and you will be presented with options to update the button text. And in the Details pane you can update the button color and other attributes.
In the Link box above the template, enter the URL you want the button to take the user.
Preview Your Results
At any time you can click the Preview button in the top right to get a fully functional sneak peek of what your parents and guardians will see. You can see how the template will look on both a computer and a cell phone.
Updating Email Template Subject Lines
We’ve built templates that have generic subject lines, however, you might want to update these to better reflect your message. To edit the template subject line, simply replace the text under the ”Subject Line” box at the top of the editor. You can also rename the template in this section.
