Yesterday I posted about variables when sending mails using ActiveCampaign.
Talking about variables like %RSS:ITEM:TITLEโ% inside an email I send using ActiveCampaign will of course trigger ActiveCampaign to replace these variables ๐. Stupid of me!
The email didn’t make any sense without them variables.
What I should have done is one of two things:
โ
Escaping characters
By replacing some characters in the variable with special HTML Escape Characters. For example, by replacing the character %
with %
. This is what I ended up doing.
โ
Add invisible html tags
By adding a <span/>
somewhere in the variable, like %RSS:ITEM:TITLEโ<span>%
.
To use either one of these solutions depends on how your editor treats HTML. In WordPress you need to convert your Paragraph block to Custom HTML to apply this.
