I have my token " {{my.SideBar_Headline}}" in the email with the html of <p>{{my.SideBar_Headline}}</p>. In the preview it looks fine but it is generating in the sample as:

Why is it doing this. I used this template a few days ago with no issues and now all of a sudden starting on Friday it is doing this.

If that's a Velocity token, you can't use Send Sample to test it. Use a real email.

Thanks but in this case. I do not want the $ and did not program it there. It just is showing up instead of the token text.

If it's there in Send Sample... then you shouldn't be using Send Sample (as is well-known with Velocity tokens). Why would you expect it to look "right" in a context where it's known to not work? I don't understand.

Hi Angie Zarate,

Have you used any variable for this name ? This is the syntax of declaring the variable which we have defined in the <head> section.

${} is standard Velocity formal reference notation, used in several places.
