Question

Tracking urls that are hidden by <!--[if mso]

We use <!--[if mso]> html coding in our emails to display content only when the email is opened with the Microsoft Outlook Client. However Adobe Campaign doesn't identify the url and therefore does not track the url. Are there any ways to get Adobe to recognise the url or is there alternative html coding that you would recommend?

Hello @paulwotton.

i planned to solve this by adding the actual generated tracking url and replace the ones inside the conditional comments before we send the email out. I wanted to do it before the send but i thing you can also hardcode them. But good practice is not to use CTA inside conditional comments

Hello @paulwotton  

 

This can be solved by using the normal anchor (a) tags instead of v:* VML tags

 

You can use something like this

<!--[if mso]>
     
        /* Outlook-specific HTML content goes here. */
    
<![endif]-->

Let me know if that helps
