2. Learn more about variables ( %%EVENT_NAME%% )
By using variables, you can set certain content to be automatically filled when sending an email.
Variable Name | Detaills | Availlable for |
%%EVENT_NAME%% | Event name | New emails & Automated emails |
%%RECEIVER_NAME%% | Name of the receiver | New emails & Automated emails |
%%RECEIVER_AFFILIATION%% | Organization of the receiver | New emails & Automated emails |
%%RECEIVER_POSITION%% | Job position of the receiver | New emails & Automated emails |
%%LOGIN_LINK%% | Login Link | New emails & Automated emails |
%%TARGET_BUTTON%% | Button | Automated emails only |
%%PASSWORD_SETUP_LINK%% | Link for password setup | Automated emails only |
The destination of "%%LOGIN_LINK%%" differs depending on the the status of the user. Users who have already set their password and previously signed in will be linked to either a login page or the top page. For users who have received an invitation but have not set up their password or previously signed it, they will be send to a password setup page. You can send emails with "%%LOGIN_LINK%%" to users who cannot find their invitation emails so they can complete their sign in process.
<attention>Please note that "%%TARGET_BUTTON%%" and "%%PASSWORD_SETUP_LINK%%" can only be used in automated emails, and therefore cannot be used in reminder emails.</attention>
3. Change font style and color
Emails are sent in HTML or text formats. Please note that since HTML emails are automatically converted, some A tags may be visible in text emails.
You can use HTML code to edit text style and color.
- Change text color(Example: Red text)
<span style="color: red">Insert text</span>
- Change text to bold
<span style="font-weight: bold">Insert text</span>
Please note: Since the above is not a service provided by EventHub, we cannot guarantee the HTML code will operate as planned.
4. Email send address
You can change sender names but the send address (no-reply@eventhub.jp) cannot be edited. However, if participants reply to your email, the email will be sent to your registered email address.
To learn more about sender names and registered email address, take a look at Edit Automated Emails.
<attention>Please note that you cannot send emails from your own domain.</attention>
