Hi Paul. I'm sorry to hear you're unhappy with your 3GE experience so far, I recognize it can be very time consuming rebuilding an email from scratch. You are still able to copy campaigns from the new editor, so you'll be able to copy everything over from a previous campaign like before once the initial template is recreated. This does, of course, only apply to a one to one transfer so if you can't copy different blocks from multiple separate campaigns into one. However, if you do need to do that; while there are no plans to implement html access to 3GE emails, we do have a custom code editor that builds the entire email from code. You can definitely use that if you essentially need to glue together a campaign with blocks from different emails. ... View more

Hi Terra. Autocorrect is not a function built into Constant Contact so it's very possible that is what's causing the issue. To your point, definitely a good idea to switch browsers. We recommend using Chrome or Firefox with Constant Contact. If the issue persists after that, try disabling the autocorrect itself. It's probably an extension in your browser or possibly a program on your computer. ... View more

Hi Arnita. When you say it is not accepting the image, is it giving you an error message? What file type is the image?  ... View more

Hi Brad. The mobile version of the email is set to a single column layout that can only fit one image/button per row, which is why your buttons are all one by one like that. You can take a picture of 3 buttons in a row and then upload that since technically that would just be one picture, but of course that would be purely aesthetic as you could not apply 3 links to that one image. ...

Hi David. Yes that's correct, if thy are a campaign creator, they cannot send emails from the account. However, the account manager role does let them do what you are describing. If they each had their own list, they could just target their list when sending out their emails. ... View more

Hi Edward. You can check the send history of your email to see how many times it went out.

Hi Joan. Is the block you're trying to place the images in part of a multi-column layout? If so, it will not allow you to put two images in that same block. However, if the block is a standalone and it's still not letting you place two images, make sure the image is not within a text block. If you've tried both of these things and are still having trouble, feel free to give us a call or send us an email at social_support(at)constantcontact(dot)com with your username and the name of the campaign and we can take a look. ...

Hello. If you haven't already, I would take a look at your email reports. Is a 20% open rate lower than your own or the industry average? Are you experiencing a lot of bounces? If some of you emails are doing better than others, take a look at their subject line. Having a captivating subject line that grabs people's attention is very important in getting opens. ...

Hello. When you say the text is disappearing, is it still present but just not visible or is it being deleted entirely? Does this happen throughout the entire email or just in that one block? I would try an incognito/private window or another browser if you haven't already. You can also try previewing the original email, copying the text from there and then pasting it into a new block in the copy to see if the text sticks that way. ... View more

Hi Patti. If your contacts are in apple/mac mail, you can import directly into Constant Contact from there. You can also upload a spreadsheet into Constant Contact as well. ... View more

Hi Kevin. Our system reads each email address in your account as a contact so if each Google group in your contacts is one email address, it will view that group as a contact. If all your contacts are set up in this way then technically yes, so long as the email is read as opened for each email address, you will have a 100% open rate. The system has no way of knowing the number for each individual person within that group unless you have all of their email addresses as separate contacts in your database. ... View more

Hi Jan! Whatever you plug in for the online event URL in the event basics will be included in the confirmation email that goes out to someone once they finish registering.

Hello! Under that same my settings page, under "other" off to the right, there will be an option that says "Manage Contact Emails". You can edit the confirmed opt-in emails there. I would also check under basic landing pages in case you're referring to a landing page they're being redirected to. If you need help finding that page, follow steps 1-2 in this article. ...

Hi Jill! We do have an integration with SurveyMonkey so if you do want to use that for your survey, you certainly can. However, as you mentioned, you can also follow the instructions you've already seen to create a survey using our tool within Constant Contact. Either way, both of these options are available under the Email Plus plan. ... View more

Hi Claudia. The button on Constant Contact inline forms is static, there is no way to edit their width at this time. We can submit that as a feature request if you'd like! ... View more

Hi Amanda. If your image blocks are going down to the bottom, it's possibly because the text box already has an image inside it so it's goin g to the next available spot. If you want to put an image between two parts of text, I recommend splitting up the text into individual boxes that end right before where you want to put your next image. This should make it easier to format the email and images exactly how you want it. If the new editor is still giving you issues after that, feel free to send us your username at social_support(at)constantcontact(dot)com and we can take a look at your template and see what's going on. ...

Hi Amanda! While you won't be able to copy templates that were created using the Legacy-Second-Generation Editor, those campaigns will still appear on your campaigns page. They will not be deleted, but you will have to create a new template in the Third-Generation editor once Legacy is retired. ... View more

Hi Leslie! Sorry to hear your email isn't looking quite right on mobile. How exactly does it look distorted? The mobile layout of the email will place blocks top to bottom in the same order that they are left to right on desktop, are they out of order? Please feel free to attach screenshots, or you can send us your username to social_support(at)constantcontact(dot)com so we can take a look. ... View more
