I hate the new email system.
I cannot express how much I ABSOLUTELY despise the new email system. It is unwieldly, uncooperative, ignores my attempts to change font sizes, with the image gadget thing I can't put images where I want and when I add a new image I have to change the order of sorting each time. It's ridiculous! It reminds me of editing in the 90's. Whatever feedback you were trying to address you got it completly wrong with this rollout, I am beyond annoyed at how difficult it is to put together a simple email now. Thanks for ruining something that was working…

Photo Update Horrible
The new update that forces you to insert photos as gadgets in e-mails is horrible. Clunky, cumbersome, and doesn't work properly. Doesn't allow you to layer the photo on top of a text box, as I need to for newsletters. Formatting is never pleasant, but this "update" makes it that much worse and inefficient. Please go back to the old system that had the "Photo" option in the toolbox menu. This is a huge pain.

Final monitor before email blasts
Is there a way that someone can be setup as an email administrator - meaning give the final OK before emails go out? Mostly interested when events don't use the right groups and end up sending to all our contacts! YIKES. It looks like there is an email administrators button but it is not active for me as the overall administrator. Thanks for any help if this is already something that is available. My email is rohde.sandi@gmail.com I'm with Mid-Day Women's Alliance.

copying email to website a big issue
Every month, I copy the monthly email newsletter into a web page. I had a very difficult time copying the images from the latest email. They come in as a gadget that doesn't go across the column in the web page. I had to delete each of them and then get the image down again. Not user friendly.
Sorry, but I don't believe the testing for this new feature meets your usual high standards.
I also do not understand why it was even implemented. One of the tech support folks said to fix formatting issues on different browsers, but I…1 vote -
Positioning and Tables
Two things:
1) Please can you place the 'Add layout' in the column on the left so that I don't have to keep scrolling to the bottom each time I want to add a section.
2) It would be good to have a 'Table' gadget so that I can create a table (like Excel) in my email.
3) Is there any way we can have more than a 3 column layout?
Thanks

Editor not showing full file name
in the email editor, I tried to insert a file. It worked OK, except it only showed me a portion of the file names. I had to exit and go to Files to determine which one I wanted.

With the new email editor, I can no longer format links within the text to make them stand out.

Social Media Icons
Is there any way to include social media icons to be linked to social profiles? Is this something that would have to be inserted, one at a time, as separate image gadgets once I download the social media icon images from another site? It would be nice to have this as a gadget, like the website side offers.

Insert Picture Into Text
With the new email update, I was told by Wild Apricot that you can no longer insert pictures into the text. This is an issue especially, for example, if I want to include a signature block and cannot include the company logo below the name, address, etc. I would have to instead include an additional image gadget and line it up just right with the signature block.

Email editor, Linking to files and images
The new image gadget is missing the ability to create a new folder. I have to exit the email editor, go to Files, create a Folder, go back to the email. VERY inconvenient.

Tables in email editor
This is VERY Frustrating to remove the ability to continue to use a table - right before Thanksgiving, UGH!!!! No clear instructions from you and editing this table now is a pain.

Unfortunately tables do not allow to have consistent and predictable results across different platforms. That is why most of emailing systems have limited or even no support for tables. If you need to insert tabular data, you can paste a table from Excel or any other spreadsheet editor. But if you want to use table to format text, then it is better to explore other formatting options.

Email Editor Cancel Button, undo changes
Within the Email Editor, there is no Cancel button. If a serious error is made when drafting an email (particularly one that has already been saved), there is no way to escape and discard the changes and start again. Almost every other editing module on the site has a Cancel option.

Cancel / undo functionality is in our plans.

customize the from line
My nonprofit holds recruitment events in private homes. When we send invitations to these hosted events, we'd like the "From" line to be that hostess's name, as we've had much more success with invitations from the hostess, rather than from our organization. Is it possible to customize the "From" line in emails? Much like in an Evite.

Allow admin to remove unused email subscription source
While were setting up email subscriptions for a few groups, we created a subscription source that was never used and is no longer needed. It still shows up in the list of subscription sources available for a contact. I'm concerned that a new admin might assign a person to an incorrect list. It would be very helpful to be able to remove any or all subscription sources.

Search button for saved templates
You should have a search button (You know when you go to Email, Templates?), so that you can just type in the saved name of the template you were working on instead of scrolling through very single duplicate to find the one you were working on.

Simplify email by having a uniform email template and emails in one place
I'm sorry you put so much effort in redoing the email editor since it probably is NOT what people were asking about. Basically look at Emma, MailChimp, ConstantContact. What do they have in common? Consistency and ease of use. You set your header and footer in a template that isn't touched. This also includes fonts and colors. All emails created are just the BODY of the template. I am so frustrated right now. We changed our logo and changed our social media addresses and I literally have to change 100s of emails. The event templates, the membership templates for EACH…

We would like to address rejoining members separately from renewing
According to the way we’ve been operating:
- A new member is someone who has never been a member before; WA is set up for that. WA generates an e-mail response welcoming new members.
A renewing member is someone who was a member in the previous calendar year (renewal due 12/15), but renews any time from 12/15 to 12/14 (e.g., 12/15/18 - 12/14/19). WA is set up for that. WA generates an e-mail response thanking a member for renewing.
A rejoining member is someone who last renewed outside the standard renewal period; in this example, before 12/15/17 (their membership will have…

Email address field type
For field type, it would be nice to have a “email address” field type that would check that whatever is entered is a valid email address I.e. xxxxx@yyyyy.zzz

email log entry to show list/group/search use for mass mailing
the one thing that email log ,or the event reminder or announcement for that matter , does not tell me is to what contact/member list, saved search, member group or member list that the mass email was sent to. It would be nice to see that in the summary of the entry from the email log. see attached example. if this was there then, investigating issue would not have been a problem. BTW the system is already getting data from the event to post in the "origin" field.
interestingly enough, the system does exact that and shows the contact/member list,…
