How to Add and Edit Conditional Dynamic Content?
Before adding Conditional Dynamic Content, please ensure you work in Real-Time Marketing. Begin composing your email by adding text boxes, images, buttons, etc.
- Once you have identified an area you want to personalize, highlight the section by selecting an item from within. If you plan to add conditional content to a single item, advance to step 2. If you would like to select multiple items, navigate to the top left corner of the selected item and click on the dropdown. Choose the Section option to highlight the entire section.
- In the example below, the user can highlight the entire section by selecting the photo and the image.
- After highlighting items, navigate to the top right of your section and select the icon showing two people with a gear. The highlighted box will then turn purple to indicate that it is a Conditional Dynamic Content block.
- On the right side of the designer, the user is provided with a new tab named Variations. In this tab, select +New Condition to define a condition for the user block.
