hello vipers today we're going to go

0:02

over creating a integrated footer invite

0:06

clouds HTML templates now this is an

0:11

advanced feature that most white cloud

0:14

users aren't going to need but if you

0:17

are sending lots of mass campaigns using

0:21

HTML emails then it can be useful to be

0:26

able to customize your footer per the

0:30

can-spam laws regarding having your

0:33

address in an unsubscribe link in there

0:35

but being able to create it in such a

0:37

way that it is nicely worked into your

0:42

your overall branding presentation in

0:45

the in the email so let's get started

0:49

with this first of all you are going to

0:51

need to make sure that you've actually

0:53

got your your business address set up

0:56

with invite cloud so what you to do that

0:59

you'll want to click on your name in the

1:01

upper right corner go to setup go to

1:06

your email settings here's your office

1:12

address which is required per can span

1:15

laws make sure your dress is in there if

1:17

you are putting it in then hit the

1:19

update address button and then let's

1:22

head over to templates email and then

1:27

we're going to go to an HTML template

1:35

then let's scroll down and you'll see

1:39

right here is the integrated footer

1:41

section and we've already got it kind of

1:43

formatted here for you so we've got your

1:47

address already poured it over here and

1:50

then there's also this little checklist

1:51

right here for the two the two items

1:54

that are required for this which of

1:56

course is your address and the

1:58

unsubscribe link so let's go here and

2:01

copy it over go into its the footer here

2:06

and we can quickly turn this into a text

2:08

box by clicking on this little text icon

2:11

here otherwise you can just go

2:13

drop a text block over let's go in here

2:17

get rid of the sample text hit paste run

2:23

out this a little bit more nicely all

2:31

right so we got the first step heat done

2:34

here

2:34

got the address let's actually go over

2:38

here and save which will then update the

2:42

checker down here so you can see that

2:44

this is already done so technically this

2:46

is this is actually good to go but one

2:49

thing to keep in mind of course is that

2:50

this merge tagger here it's going to

2:52

take over your it's going to pull over

2:54

your unsubscribe link and there's gonna

2:58

be like a go as you might be well aware

3:00

the URL for an unsubscribe link is going

3:03

to be pretty big so that's not the

3:05

prettiest way of presenting it so let's

3:07

let's take this to the next level

3:10

bye I'm gonna cut the unsubscribe link

3:15

merge field or merge tag I should say

3:19

and I'm gonna make clicking here into

3:22

into the link so I've I've highlighted

3:26

that scrolled up let's do it again

3:35

and click on the hyperlink right there

3:41

and let's go over here to link change

3:48

that to other so that it removes the

3:53

HTTP from the beginning of it because

3:55

that's all going to be merged over with

3:58

the merge tag and then I'm going to

4:00

paste unsubscribe link and so that's

4:05

done but the link as you can see the

4:08

link color now has gone to to white so

4:12

let's just we want to make that visible

4:13

people need to be able to see the the

4:16

link so link color I'm gonna go over

4:18

here turn that into black and now we're

4:22

never done and and of course you can you

4:26

can customize this a little bit

4:27

further to make it into something that

4:30

works well your template but that's the

4:32

whole idea here but these are the

4:33

fundamentals now one one last thing

4:36

though is we're gonna want to never have

4:40

to go through this again like once

4:42

you've once you've made this this footer

4:45

fit with your brand it's looking good

4:48

you don't want to have to do that every

4:50

single time that you that you create a

4:52

new template so let's let's go about

4:56

doing that so what we're gonna want to

4:58

do is make this into a module and so we

5:02

see it when we put the mouse in here you

5:04

can see that like right now for instance

5:06

we've got very highlighting just this

5:07

little box right here but there's also

5:09

this whole structure and that Matt

5:10

structure is the complete footer so

5:12

let's we want to make that into the

5:15

module so you can see right here that

5:18

the little tab here for the whole

5:20

structure is found over here that's the

5:23

this is the save as module button right

5:27

click that let it load and then right

5:33

here module name let's call the

5:35

integrated footer go down here save and

5:45

then in the future when you want to when

5:50

you want want to put in this integrated

5:51

footer and into a new template all you

5:55

have to do here I'm gonna just go to

5:57

this is the view that you'll typically

5:59

see when you're going to be building a

6:00

new template got structures blocks

6:03

modules go to module right here and

6:06

6:09

6:13

one right here is we want integrated
