Import site Posts into an Edition

Reusing Posts you have already published on your microsite saves you from rewriting content for email. Instead of copying and pasting, you can import a Post's title, summary, image, and link directly into an Edition so it is ready to include in a Broadcast.

Before you begin​

  • Confirm the Posts you want are already published (or at least saved) on the microsite you plan to pull from.
  • Open or create the Edition that will hold the imported content, and make sure it lives in the correct Folder.
  • Check that you have permission to edit both the site and the Edition. If you only manage one, ask an admin (confirm the exact roles in your account).

Steps​

  1. Open the Edition you want to add content to, and place your cursor where the Post should appear.
  2. Insert a content block that supports pulling in site Posts (for example, a Post or article block) (confirm the exact block name in your account).
  3. Choose the source site and browse or search for the Post you want to import.
  4. Select one or more Posts. The block pulls in each Post's title, summary, image, and a link back to the full Post on your site.
  5. Adjust the layout, trim the summary text, or reorder Posts so they read well inside the email.
  6. Save the Edition.

Result​

The imported Posts appear in your Edition as formatted content, each linking to the live Post on your site. Send a test to yourself, then confirm the links open the correct Posts before you schedule the Broadcast.
