Great to see this frequently requested feature make it into the product! This has been a long time in coming and I'm excited to see it realised in the product.

Some quick questions.

1. It seems to me that you can not add this token as a link to text or images. We have a calendar icon which is linked to the calendar file. Should I create a new idea for this?

2. Can you add HTML/images to the calendar file? We currently copy our confirmation email, including formatting & images, to our calendar files. Is/Will this be supported?

The cloning issue did not get patched last night as I had expected.  The plan is to patch today.

I'm having similar issue on using tokens inside the text area.

Did both a test email and smart campaign to send me the email.  
  • The test email just displayed the token {{my.Live-Event Name:default=edit me}} 
  • The campaign email did not display the value of the token.

@Amber - are you cutting and pasting from MS Word?  If so, can you try from notepad?  MS Word is pulling over "smart quotes" and the plain text does not know how to interrupt this and puts in the garbarge characters you are seeing.

I have logged this with support but in case anyone else is having this problem... when I click the token's link in my email, I still get an "OOps, page not found" error.

I will create a ticket for support, but the tokens within my calendar file are not resolving.

Here's my calendar description:

Link naar webinar: {{member.webinar url}}

{{my.Event Title}} {{my. Event Time}}


Here's what I get in the ICS file:

Link naar webinar: {{member.webinar url}}
{{my.Event Title}} {{my. Event Time}}

Ah, my Campaign Manager put a space in the token Event Time, see it there? It prevented all the other tokens from resolving.

@Cheryl

Yes, I copied & pasted my details out of notepad and still got the funky characters in my email. It's something that I can easily work around, but figured you should know about.
