✏️ Edit a saved section

Easily update your saved section whenever needed to easily handle changes. For example, if your company moves to a new address, you can quickly update it without recreating the section, or you can also adjust design elements like background color, or images to maintain brand consistency.

You can either: 

  • Edit your saved section independently to make changes that appear only in the email design you're currently in, without affecting other email designs where it is used.  
  • Edit and sync your saved section across emails to automatically reflect the changes across all the email designs in which it is used.

    2. Drag and drop the saved section you want to edit in your email design. Use the search and sort options to find it easily.
    3. Select the saved section to open its settings in the left panel.

    5. Make the necessary changes to your section.
      💡 Good to know
      Any changes made in the section after it is inserted in the email will not reflect in the original saved section. If you want to permanently make changes to your section, use the Edit across emails option, insert the saved section, and make changes, or create new section.

Edit the name of your saved section to make it easier to find it later:

🗑 Delete a saved content

If you no longer wish to reuse a saved section, you can delete it completely.

💡 Good to know
Your saved section will still be visible in the email designs in which it is used, but it will no longer be synced, and you will no longer be able to edit them at once.
  1. In the left panel of your email editor, access the Content > Saved tab.
  2. Click the bin 🗑 icon next to the name of the section you want to delete.
  3. Click Delete from Saved list in the confirmation modal.
