JulieL34 - don't avoid using the 3rd Gen Editor!! There are many more positive things you'll experience in 3GE than whatever reasons you are holding onto in 2GE! I have heard that saving templates in 3GE is now in Beta testing, so it may not be much longer. Use the workaround I described above and get started in 3GE! It is very easy to use and there are so many new features there... and it is a completely superior experience for your readers.  Remember the goal is to engage your readers, and 3GE will help you do that easier. I agree - it would be nice to know what it means for CTCT to label something a Certified Great Idea! ... View more

DaveB791 - There is a simple workaround for this. Customize a template the way you want - but don't send it. Save it as a DRAFT, then go to your DRAFT folder and look for the one you need each week or month. To find it, go to Campaigns, and on the left side look for Status > Drafts and you'll easily find your templates.  Make one for each use, e.g. Monthly Board Mtg., Program Promo, Monthly News, etc. Name them Monthly Board Mtg.-COPY, Program Promo-COPY, Monthly News-COPY, etc. to remind you to rename it and not edit that copy.      ...

What would really take care of this request is making it possible to SAVE a 3GE email that has been customized as a real template. This was a new great - an unbelivably WOW! - feature unveiled on 2GE in mid-2016. It was a game-changer! So very cool and I started offerning this as a service to my customers - either building a CUstom Template for thme OR training them on how to do it. Then in about Augsut 3GE became a viable choice and I moved clients to that platform. It has been getting better and better! BUT it still does not have the ability to SAVE AS TEMPLATE like 2GE ... and it wasn't even mentioned as something they are working on in the 2017 Kickoff.   PLEASE make it happen!  ... View more
