List of Default Email Elements (Drag-and-Drop Editor)

Email elements are blocks that can be used to build an email or a template in the Drag-and-Drop editor. These blocks can contain an image, text, or both, and each has a particular layout (1 to 5 columns), as well as styles for mobile display (see Editing and Testing the Mobile Version of an Email).

By default, several structure and content blocks are available to meet most needs. However, if none of the provided elements meet your specific needs, we can help you with a more personalized option, upon request.

In this article, you will discover all the blocks that are available by default our Drag-and-Drop templates.

Structure

Create your layout using the structure blocks. The places where the selected blocks can be dropped are indicated as you move around in the email.

Click on the  edit icon to see the editing options, which differ slightly depending on the number of columns you choose.

Block	Description and use
1 column	Allows you to add a single column structure, with or without a background image. If you want to add a background image over the entire height of the message, use the "Default styles" section, available in the left-hand menu.
Several columns , , etc.	Allows you to add a two to five column structure. You can exceed the maximum width of the message, delete the space between columns, define background colors, etc.

Content

To add a content block, you must drag it into a structure block.

Block	Description and use
New! Title	Allows you to add a title to your content. To change the formatting of the styles applied to titles, use the options in the "Default Styles" section. These will be applied to the whole message, thus to all titles. If you want a title to have a different style from the other titles, define your preferences in the "Styles" tab of the title in question.
