Editing CM templates

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

In OpenEMM you can retrospectively edit each CM template to meet your needs at any time. You can call a list of all available CM templates by selecting firstly Mailings and then Content manager in the main OpenEMM menu. Then, for each desired CM template, click on the Edit symbol.

OpenEMM now displays the CM templates in a new window. In the standard view, OpenEMM lists the name and description of the templates and displays them in a preview. Clicking on the Edit button allows you to modify the template contents. The button Assign to mailing assigns the CM template to a mailing. In chapter "Using CM templates in mailings" you can read how this functions.

In the text box Template content you now see the contents of the CM template and can adapt this according to your wishes. Directly under this input field you can the supplement the template with pictures or replace existing ones.

Change picture: OpenEMM lists all integrated pictures under the input field with the template contents. In order to change an existing picture, set a tick next to Edit and then enter the corresponding path under Import or External picture component.
If you want to remove the picture from the CM template, click on Delete.
Add picture: In order to add a new picture to the CM template, set a tick next to Add, give it a Name and then enter the corresponding path under Import or External graphics component. Enter the name in the Name field that you used in the source code in the associated agnIMAGE tag. Do not forget to create an agnIMAGE tag with the same name in the source text so that OpenEMM can assign the new picture. (If the tag has already been converted by OpenEMM into a path of the type /cms_image?fid=4711, simply overwrite the code again with the agnIMAGE tag.)
