Templates are used for emails sent out from Picturepark e.g. a share or an invite to the system. Additionally, Pages like the Share Page are listed here. Templates are always available in both system languages (English and German). Share pages can also be translated into other metadata languages e.g. Spanish, French. |
There are two types of templates available:
Custom templates: which are slightly customized in color and text, e.g. customer logo changed.
System templates: which are required by the system and contain Picturepark's default text and styles.
Create a TemplateYou can create new templates of various types.
|
Update a TemplateWhen you edit a system template, e.g. by adding a custom logo, Picturepark will save your changes as a new custom template and use that.
Edit or Update is basically overwriting the existing template, except for completely newly created share templates (share mail, share page). |
Delete a TemplateYou can only delete custom templates. When you delete your customized template the default version of the template is restored and available in system templates.
Deletion of templates is restoring the system defaults. You cannot break any functionality when deleting a template. There is no undo or revert back, deleted custom templates are gone. |
For styling in mail templates, it is recommended to use CSS inline in style tags, see https://mailchimp.com/help/css-in-html-email/. Gmail strips out the style section in the head tag, but for example, their mobile e-mail client keeps CSS in head tags.
