Watch this video to get a refresher on adding sections:
With sections, you can organize elements horizontally in columns and try different layouts. Add text content, graphics and call-to-action buttons to populate your sections.
To add a section, open your email template in the PosterMyWall Email Maker:
- When starting a new email, choose a template to instantly apply a pre-designed layout. These often include built-in sections with images, text, and buttons, just swap out the content with your own
- Click the 'Section' button on the left menu (it's the first option from the top)
- Use a Blank section if you want to build from scratch. This gives you full control over layout, columns, and design. Ideal for highly customized emails.
- Clicking an item adds it to the bottom of the email. You can also drag-and-drop to add an item to your desired place in the email.
- Click the 'Insert text' box to start typing your text. Edit the text font, size, color, layout and more via the right contextual menu.
- Select and hold the button with 4 opposite facing arrows to move the section around the email template.
Additionally, you can edit, remove and add additional items to a section.
Saved sections
If you’ve created a section you love, you can save it to reuse in future emails:
- Click on the section
- Use the option to save section (found on the top right)
Edit your email section
Each section in your email forms the bread and butter of your marketing email. You can add an image, text content, fix up columns to fit your style, add background colors and make adjustments such as change column roundness, width or border width.
You can add background images and videos and change the background color of individual columns. Use the color box next to “Background media” under the right contextual menu to add background images and video. Use the plus icon next to “Background color” to change the background color.
Use the Text and Button options on the left menu to add text content and clickable buttons to your email. Drag and drop these items in place. Use ‘Table’ to add a table to your column. Use ‘Video’ and ‘Sticker’ to add videos and stickers respectively. Then drag and drop these items in place.
Watch this quick video to learn about adding tables to your email.
Items can be dragged and dropped directly from their respective menus as well.
