Savable blocks

[Ablakley]

It would be nice if we could create blocks that we could save into a library of sorts. All of our campaigns use similar contact blocks but very different headers. It would be nice to not have to recreate the block from scratch, or to exit the campaign, find the other campaign, copy the code, then head back to the original campaign.

Hello,

Updating the status of this request to Under Consideration to support our new community idea statuses to add better insight into your feedback.

Thank you for all of your feedback on this topic; I know this request has been around for many years. This is something we would love to be able to implement. We’ve had some plans in the past that have been reprioritized. The current thought is that we hope we will be able to focus on this at some point in the future, and some of the ideas floated around have been really cool! That being said, I don’t have any sort of estimated time that it might be accomplished. We do have a potential new feature coming this quarter that may help. We will keep this thread updated.

I regularly used the copy-HTML-and-paste feature in earlier versions of CC as a way to re-use blocks of material from previous campaigns.  Removing that feature without creating an alternative (e.g., savable blocks) was a major mistake on the part of the CC developers in my opinion.  I now have to edit copies of entire campaigns in order to re-use material that was painstakingly developed.  Either that or I start from scratch every time.  This is unacceptable and makes me really dislike a program that it is otherwise very good.

When CC removed the copy-HTML-and-paste feature a couple of years ago, I immediately asked them for a fix.  It appears that my request and similar requests from other CC users continue to be ignored.  Please fix this!

I am voting for this feature as well. It makes it easier to make sure you are only making changes to semi-evergreen/boilerplate info in one spot, leaving less room for error. many times I am working on more than one communication at a time and this would be wonderful to have. Failing that, being able to copy or import certain content blocks from other campaigns without having to completely recreate the wheel. For instance, I have a monthly newsletter for my HOA, I always copy the previous month's email and make edits from there so that the boiler plate stays the same, but I have to delete all of the other elements. It's tedious. Then, if I want to add an event we have every year, I have to build (or copy and reformat) that content from last year's newsletter rather than being able to just import or copy that whole content block as-is. In other programs, I would either have the ability to save that out as a library item OR copy the source code and paste it in the new content block's code.

THANK YOU!

Yes, in this third-generation email editor we need the ability to save blocks of layouts from one campaign to another. It's easy if you just start from a copied campaign, but what if you want to grab something from another campaign... let's say a whole block of elements that were carefully put together.. impossible. you have to rebuild it. Insane waste of time. Really hope a workaround for this is added soon.

I'd like to copy a block from one campaign and paste it into another campaign
