You can also add attachments, auto-text placeholders, and Easy Book links.
You can change text color of your email body by selecting from the dropdown color options in the toolbar or choosing a specific color by clicking the palette icon in the Color Picker and inputting an RGB/Hex code.
Note that you have the ability to upload images and gifs by clicking the image icon in the toolbar or by dragging and dropping the file into the editor.
Formatting emails with HTML
Lever enables you to format regular emails as well as email templates, Nurture campaign email templates, and emails sent using automation workflows.
Click the <> button on the toolbar to open the source code editor.
You can then edit or input your desired HTML code.
Any errors in the HTML will turn red.
For support in writing or troubleshooting the HTML, we recommend speaking with a developer on your team that can assist with custom code.
