Version Control
Email and Landing Page Templates now have Version Control. A new template will be a draft until it is approved:
If you choose to just save your changes, the template version remains as a draft. You can access the version history by clicking on the Version Control list at the top left of the screen.
The most recent information about updates to the template are displayed next to this box.
Once you are happy with your template, clicking on Save and Approve will set the Version Control to be Approved.
You can create another draft template from this approved version using the Save as new draft button.
Element Options
Buttons at the top of the design section allow you to toggle the view of your template between Show Mobile and Show Desktop views.
Show/Hide Structure will display the widths of your elements and their padding within the template.
Elements can be set to Hidden (perhaps to display on Desktop but not when the recipient views on Mobile) and these can be displayed for the view using the Show Hidden Elements option.
Show/Hide Merge Field Previews (only on Email Templates) to see or hide Merge fields used in your templates.
See Merge Fields to add fields from your CRM to your Brand.
