Why should I use the Hyperlink Manager to add Web Content links to my email?

In addition to saving you time since you won't have to open a Web Content Editor to get a link from its Embed menu whenever you want to link to the record, using the Hyperlink Manager to add a link to your Form, Survey, or Subscription Page will also allow us to automatically populate the recipient's email address into the Email field on the record when they open it.

Linking Web Content in the Email Designer

Open the Email Designer from within an Email Template or Email Send. When a text block is selected, click the Special Links icon within the toolbar to open the Link Manager.

In the Special Links window, select link type Web Content and then choose your desired web content type: Profile Management Forms, Surveys, or Landing Pages. When linking to a Form or Survey, you have the option to prevent recipient data from auto-populating by checking the "Don't prefill with recipient data" box.

Linking Web Content in the Free Style Editor

Open the Free Style editor from within an Email Template or Email Send, and the button to access the link manager will appear at the top of the designer window.

In the Free Style Editor's link manager, select the Web Content tab and choose your desired Web Content type: Profile Management Forms, Surveys, or Landing Pages. When linking to a Form or Survey, you have the option to prevent recipient data from auto-populating by checking the "Don't Prefill With Recipient Data" box.

Linking Web Content in the Custom HTML Editor

When you open a Custom HTML email, you will see the buttons for Subscription Management Pages and active Form records. Other links can be added manually.

Linking Web Content in the Drag and Drop Editor

When you edit a content block, click the link icon and a pop-up window will open where you can choose which web content record to link. For more help on navigating this editor, please view the Drag and Drop Editor page.
