Add Dotdigital EasyEditor fields to SmartBlocks and Slots

Add EasyEditor fields to your Fresh Relevance content to allow you to edit directly in Dotdigital.

Updated this week

By adding EasyEditor fields, you can design your content directly without switching between Dotdigital and Fresh Relevance, saving time and increasing workflow efficiency.

When you create a SmartBlock, you can edit various fields and properties to design the block as you want. After pushing Slots to Dotdigital for use in email campaigns, surveys, pages, and forms, you can edit any of these properties enabled as EasyEditor fields.


Before you start

  • This feature is only available when using Dotdigital as your messaging provider.

  • Only new-style SmartBlocks display editable default fields. If you have a SmartBlock created with the legacy editor, you must use custom fields, which requires custom HTML.
    If you need assistance, contact Support.
