The drag-and-drop email editor allows you to fully customize event-related emails using blocks, branding, buttons, variables, and HTML.
This replaces the classic email editor and is available on Business plans and above.
Summary Video
Enable and Access the Editor
Go to the Emails tab in the Sequel dashboard.
If using for the first time, follow the transition pop-up instructions.
Once enabled, you will see a new email dashboard with "Templates" as an additional tab on the left.
From here, you can create templates in two ways:
Click on the pencil icon from the Emails tab > Create new template *Recommended as this will allow you to choose a starting point rather than starting fresh
Navigate to "Templates" and "New Template." This will launch the builder with a blank template. Great option for adding in HTML of your email templates built elsewhere.
If you're looking to change the email settings themselves from this new view (Reply to email, address, etc.), click on "Settings"
