Bullet Point Options for Email Campaigns

[user16091]

Hi,

I'm looking for other bullet point options in Constant Contact. I notice there's only two options - bullet points and numbers. If you wanted more variety when creating a list, how can you add check marks or symbol/ emojis?

Hello @user16091 ,

The only options for bulleted lists is the dots. If you want to include checkmarks, emojis, or other special characters you can try typing in their alt codes, or paste them from external sources, however we can't guarantee that contacts' email programs will be able to read them properly. 

If your intent is to use emojis in the subect line, I'd advise following along with this article for guidance.
