New Feature: Social Sharing Links

We have added Social Media Sharing Links to our Enhanced HTML Editor. You can instantly add buttons to your emails to Share via Facebook, Twitter, Google and  MySpace.



There are two ways to add social media buttons:

1. Click on the new Facebook or Twitter icon in the Enhanced HTML Editor to instantly add a button.


2. Click on the Social Links popup under Message Tools to add HTML code directly to your email.


To add sharing buttons directly to the HTML code, copy and paste the provided HTML code into your email.
