Ability to copy a gadget or a whole layout in new email editor
The new email editor released in v7.6 makes it easier to create good looking layouts with mixtures of gadgets. One thing that makes it difficult to be productive is the inability to copy a gadget or layout with gadgets that has been laboriously configured. If it was possible to duplicate a gadget or a layout with gadgets preconfigured it would be so much easier to build a template. Right now there is a fairly long "rework" of existing templates that really need to be recreated from scratch, and people resist the urge because they think it will take a long…
69 votesThe ability to copy gadgets and layouts in the new Email editor was be published with 7.13 and 7.14 version releases.

Email Template thumbnails
I am really unhappy that you have removed the ability to put thumbnails up for templates. It makes finding the templates so much easier. I don't understand what possible benefit can come from taking away organizational tools.

Email Previews do not look like emails in Outlook
Previews do not even look close to what my Outlook email receives sometimes. It would be helpful to have more accurate representation of what is being sent to my clients.

Customizing Emails
We need to be able to modify our emails the same way we can modify our websites. The templates are a good start, but we should be able to add or remove sections (columns) and include dividers. I don't like being confined to a template... my newsletters have a lot of content and I don't want it to read like a long email. I want it to look like a constant contact email. This might be a deal-breaker as our emails are one of the most important elements of our organization.

Maintain border and margin formats for photos in emails
When I format pictures with margins and borders they look fine in the edit mode of emails, but when they arrive at the inbox they disappear, allowing the photo to touch the text that wraps around it. Fix that, please.

Export email failures and delivered information to Excel
It would be nice to be able to export (email log) results for failures and delivered emails. Then I would be able to provide information on WHO received, opened and clicked on an email. This would help with getting 'failures' fixed too.

Export email failures and delivery information is out there with our latest 7.21 release.

Autosave while composing email template
I was just composing a lng email when for no appearent reason, the content disappeared and I was kick back to the "select a template" menu page. It would be good to have a dependable, periodic system save during the email composition process.
8 votesAutosave is now implemented for both email templates. You will not loose your work in case of accidental closing browser or glitch in your computer.
Changes to email templates are automatically saved every 5 seconds. If your browser crashes or you accidentally reload the page, you’ll be prompted to continue editing the auto-saved version the next time you open the template for editing.

custom email layouts
It would be great if there was a way to add new custom email layouts or customize already existing ones. For example, I want to have a single-column layout with 10 or more rows.

Email Divider in Editing
When composing an email blast, I include several different topics of announcements. I'd like the divider tool, which is available in the webpage editor, in the emails as well so to make a solid line dividing different sections of the email.

Email non-members
I can easily filter contacts in the simple search by non-members. However, the only way to save a search is in the advanced search and there is no contact criteria, only member criteria. I want to be able to email all non-members that are in our contact database. I've searched the site and cannot find anything.
1 voteIn Contacts, use Advanced search, choose “Contact properties” search criteria, “none of selected” and check “Member”. This’ll do.

{Organization_Payment_Instructions} macro in any/all of the membership emails
I'd like to include the {OrganizationPaymentInstructions} macro in any/all of the membership emails. Right now, it is only available on the "Renewal Notification" emails (Renewal Pending, Renewal Confirmed). I'd like to include it on the "Membership Applications" emails and the "Renewal Reminders" emails as well.

Enable Email html to embed iFrame content
We use services like SMORE to send out professional newsletter structures. Email function should allow <iFrame> embedding in emails.

Default standard opening and closing HTML code for emails and email templates
Why? So we don't have to add
<div style="margin-left:5px;margin-right:5px;">
to the start of every email. 1. It's a pain in the butt to do it, and 2. It's way too easy for naive editors to remove it.The reason for needing this margin is because, otherwise, WA emails run right up to the edge of a mobile screen, making it look unprofessional (NO other comparably formatted email in my inbox runs right to the edge), look like it was cut off, and unappealing to the eye.
The default code should be specifiable for opening and closing of the HTML section,…
1 voteAs far as I understand your request, you want to insert unclosed html tags in the begining of the email and then close it at the end. Such behavior will not allow the rest of the email to render, so we can’t allow that.
However the new email editor has default margins (20px), so content on mobile screens will not stick to the edges.

Test emails are very slow
When I am drafting emails, I want to send a test email to my address to check the links, proofread, and circulate to others for content approval.
I find that the test emails take an inordinate amount of time to be delivered - sometimes not until the next day. Test emails should be prioritized so that they are delivered as quickly as possible so that the drafting process doesn't take too long.

Prioritize Test Emails Ahead of "Final" Email Blasts
From time to time, there are delays in receiving emails sent through Wild Apricot. In a perfect world, this would not happen but it is understandable as there will be times of high volume.
If, however, test emails were prioritized higher than "final" email blasts, we could review emails and get them sent and move on to another task knowing that this task was complete (even though members may be waiting to receive it).
As it is, the administrator must wait as long (it seems) as an email blast for each test to come through before making additional edits or…
