1. HTML Editor

We use the world-famous and feature-enriched CKeditor to let you create/design your broadcasts. There are almost all the formatting options available with the CKeditor we ship along with MumaraCampaigns product.

2. Drag and Drop Builder (Addon)

When using Drag and Drop Builder, instead of CKeditor, you'll see a big button saying "Edit Content Area" that will redirect you to the email builder to insert your beautifully created template into the HTML content area.

You'll be taken to the Email Builder that allows you to select from the pre-built modules and drag them to the content area on the right side. The modules can be rearranged by dragging up and down and can be edited by clicking on the text or double-clicking on an image. You can easily change any styles and background images as well.

Once you have designed the email template, click on the insert button to get it inserted into the HTML version of your broadcast being created and continue completing the rest.

It will ask you to provide a URL from where Mumara can fetch the content and insert it into the HTML version of the broadcast as appear in the snapshot below.
