Add Company Social To Message Template Footer

Make sure to use the complete URL to that social media page, not just your account name.

Thank you Mr. Burr.
When I add the complete URL, how can I go about adding a social icon. I am not sure where to call it from within this plugin. I would like to have an icon link to my social channel if possible.

The newsletter plugin has the social media icons already, just give it the full URL for each one. When you add the social media block to the footer, it will be presented automatically.

That is the part I am having trouble with, adding the block to the footer of the template. I am unable to drag and drop anything and I have not been able to figure the code to make it happen.

Are you using the first template? It’s the responsive drag and drop composer. Drag the block where you want them.

The template image I attached is the only template I have for my service messages. When I open the message template I can switch to preview but I get no blocks or edits. Under the php view I can edit but need to know the exact code. Seems like I am missing something in mine. I thought it should be simple. When composing a newsletter everything is simple and fast. I just want my welcome auto email and other service emails to look better.

On this message template (ref. the attached image) I am trying to add 2 social icons under ‘company name’. I tried the documentation on Newsletter website, but couldn’t find anything. I feel like I am missing a list of tags/calls somewhere to display my social icon links.

Hi, the service messages template is still not editable with the composer and there are not shortcodes to gran in the social block. You can add the social link manually in that template.
Our plans is to make even that template editable with the composer (not it’s not an immediate integration to implement even if with the new composer we’ve worked to make it feasible).

Stefano.

Hello and thank you Stefano. Until the drag and drop composer is available, would I be able to copy the html from the newsletter composer and paste it into the template so I may get the social icons with links in the service emails? I am very new to php and don’t want to crash anything!
