Small workaround for those who use this feature and share the same frustration.. If you know the exact name of your list, you can start to type it while you're in this dropdown list and it should find it and highlight it for you. ... View more

YES! THIS! Please do this! Surprised to see this post originated back in 2017 and it's still a jumbled mess.   In case there is still any confusion on the side of Constant Contact staff (who I have seen ask for clarification here a few times).. when you are editing an email, and you insert a link, the pop-up screen where you enter the link URL, you have the ability here to enable Click Segmentation. Once you do that you have to pick the list you want to add the person to if they click your link. It's in the form of a dropdown list. If you only have a couple of lists, it's not a big deal, but for many of us who have dozens of lists, it's really annoying to find the list you're looking for because they are in seemingly random order. Alphabetized would be a huge help! Or the ability to custom sort, or search.. etc. ... View more

@LisaB834 Love the idea of the "content block library" you mentioned functioning the same way as the image library. Could be as simple as clicking on the content block settings on the right (where you can duplicate it) and have an option to "save to content library" and give it a name. That way it is accessible from any campaign, just like the image library. ... View more

Hi Candace,   No, not within the same email. That is already possible with the duplicate function. I mean the ability to save commonly used elements for use later in new campaigns.   I manage 3 different locations of a business in one constant contact account. Sometimes we email the whole database as one big company, but more commonly, we send emails from the individual locations. A lot of times, these emails are identical, with the exception of different header/footer to reflect business and location, and links to their individual websites.   I find myself rebuilding a lot of content over and over again and have felt it would be convenience to either "copy/paste" elements between campaigns when the same content is used in more than one campaign, and also have the header/footer information readily available for each location (like in an area on the left where you can pull in other content like buttons, text, etc). The headers/footers are usually the same for each location on every email, so what I normally do is copy a previous campaign and then wipe out all the content in the middle... which works but isn't the slickest approach. But for the content in the middle, there's no way to copy/paste from another campaign if I already built it out. Unless I duplicate that campaign, and then change out the header/footer, all the links, etc.. Either way it's just more work than it could be.   I don't know if my usage is typical but the ability to copy/paste elements between different campaigns or "save for later" would be useful to me! Hope this helps clarify!   ... View more

Sorry, I keep saying list segmentation, but I mean click segmentation! Oops. ... View more

When adding links to a campaign and using list segmentation, it's such a hassle to find the list segment you want to add clickers to if you have a lot of lists already created. Can you alphabetize this? It's a jumbled mess right now. It's not a problem when you are creating a new list to add clickers to, but selecting an older one from the dropdown among a long list is a pain. ... View more

Yesssssssssss! I just posted a new feedback request about the same exact thing, then found this thread after. The original post is nearly 2 years old. I guess this isn't happening? ... View more

It would be a nice feature to be able to save and reuse commonly used widgets later. For example, if you always have the same thing in the header or footer, instead of constantly rebuilding them, or copying a previous campaign and wiping out the contents in the middle, you could start with any template, and then select from previously saved content widgets to pull those new campaigns. I submitted a different feature request for copying/pasting whole elements between campaigns. This is a similar but alternative approach. However both could exist in theory and have different uses. ... View more

Sometimes I find myself wanting to copy only certain elements from one campaign to another without making a copy of the entire email. For example I manage 3 businesses from the same account. I typically send the same or similar email from all 3 businesses. So it's easier for me to copy the whole email once I build it for the first business, but then I need to rebuild the header/footer etc. Or sometimes there is a piece or several pieces of content that I want to grab and use in a template that already has all the business info in the header and footer, and the send from email, etc.. In the same way you have the duplicate pop out button on certain widgets, you could have a "copy" button.. close the campaign, open the other campaign, and paste. Would be even better somehow to select multiple widgets at one time to copy, like how you'd drag and select an array things anywhere else.. copy/paste. ... View more
