With the previous editor, pretty much everything was possible. Now there are many missing features, like the ability to copy HTML for one thing. That is huge as using the drag and drop format is often inefficient and a huge time suck. We can't make adjustments to the width of some of the blocks and so my logo really looks weird now because in the old version, I could adjust the type under the logo to fit in seamlessly. Now there is a big space because I have to insert a separate block under the one with my logo JPEG . . . Also we can't make borders either. All in all, this "update" is a huge downgrade as well as a frustration.

I would love to switch to another email program now but it's often impossible to know if a new program will give you all the design abilities that Constant Contact once had. Does anyone have any recommendations? A lot of people in my business use but I'm not sure if it has HTML access or if it's become just another mess like this new system is. I really hate that CC has made it now impossible to access my old emails in "classic" to use them as templates going forward.

Well that is not the only problem. I doubt a screen share can fix the system which has so fewer options for design that it used to have including no HTML code.

Right. So I won't use this feature at all. That is if I keep using Constant Contact now that you've made it impossible for me to use my email designs from the previous version. REALLY bad new interface. Not happy at all. Hate it as a matter of fact. Shopping for a new marketing email program now.

NO, it doesn't really work because I am not advertising on Instagram. So the links to my email are not worth anything.

And it's NOT A BROWSER ISSUE. Same thing happens in Chrome as it does in Safari. Don't you love how the company wants to put the blame on the user??

Thank you. I agree on all of these issues. Buggy editing makes me insane. Tried to change the font size 3 times before it would allow. In order to change the color of that same type, I had to hit SAVE and then HOPE that the editing window would show (it didn't several times) Then I needed to insert a link into that type. Same deal. Had to fight with the window over and over again. What a WASTE. This version is A DOWNGRADE....get me the old classic version again and upgrade that to offer the resend to non openers and I'll be happy. Shopping around for a different program now.

Constant Contact needs to support the old version again. This new version is a horrible mess.

Yes, PLEAS PLEASE PLEASE go back. This new format sucks. Also, I need to use my old templates and now I can't do that. If you want my business then you need to go back or at least offer both systems. This new one is full of bugs, doesn't allow any used of HTML and you can't space your text the way you want or place borders around your design.

It won't really work on Instagram since you can't have a link inside a post that works on Instagram. So you get a photo of your email with some sort of title and a link, but then the link doesn't work.

I am entirely hating this new software system. Continuous clicking on the boxes to just type a word and the window disappears. Happens every time. Just tried to enter ONE email into a text window and the window kept disappearing afterwards. Also you try to change the color before typing? Impossible. it just types in whatever color it feels like. Usually black, so if you are typing on a black background . . . you can't see it while you type. Horrible edit system. Consistently wasting my time.

I have already stated to your tech supporters that I need to have the ability to get the HTML code so that I can copy it from one email into another. Further without the HTML code, I cannot make lovely borders around the emails. This means that I am obligated to use a different color outside of the design, which I don't really want to do. I find this drag and drop format to be problematic as well as if you don't "drop" it exactly the way the system prefers it to drop, then the photo goes into the wrong place and so you have to keep deleting and deleting until it "happens' to do what you want. Further, there doesn't seem to be anyway to get text to wrap around a photo. Perhaps there is but I don't seem to be able to do it now. I preferred the previous format where you could simply insert a photo into the text area and it would wrap . . . . Lastly, now that we are completely unable to copy and reproduce over 500 email designs which I have used as templates in the past, this is the worst thing you could do. Stupidity. Sorry but I'm now looking for another email program as this is incomprehensible that you would completely lose the old system.

Hi, You have now deleted all of my Legacy emails? What the **bleep**???? I need to have these designs. What is going on here? You have yet to improve your new format which is truly painful to work with.

Hi, Can you fix this? That would be a great thing to resend to non-openers. I can't get that option currently.

Hi folks, I am really angry about your changeover to a new system. it doesn't allow HTML EDITING and many other features that Legacy had. I'm trying to still use Legacy because I designed my own template and now the changes to emails keep giving me errors. Really??? You are SO EXPENSIVE, you need to make Legacy work again. Sue Auclair
