Simple Email Edits

Your email templates can be customized using HTML code. Several other places in ThinkReservations support this HTML code as well! HTML code allows you to do many different things, including making text appear bold, italicized, or underlined, changing the color of your font, and inserting hyperlinks. Even if you've never used HTML before, after reviewing the instructions and examples in the table below, you'll be able to customize your emails to achieve the results you want. It's simple!

To edit your email templates, go to Settings > Email Templates and click on the template you'd like to edit. Once you know where you want your HTML code to go, you'll start with an opening tag, and finish with a closing tag. Text that is in between the two tags will be transformed.
