Adding HTML Script to Email Marketing in Online Express

Joelle Ferreira 3 · June 2020

Hello!

Hoping someone has some insight on this. I'm trying to add a Facebook Share Button to an e-blast I'm drafting, but the script is reading as text in the e-mail. Has anyone been able to embed code into their e-mails before?

Thanks,

Joelle

Hi Joelle Ferreira‍ - Unfortunately, it is not possible view OLX email's HTML code and therefore you cannot edit it, which is way your script is reading as text. OLX does offer the ability to add "social" buttons, but I don't think that's what you are looking to add. If you haven't already, check out the OLX Idea Bank and make sure to vote for the ideas to enable HTML editing of OLX emails.

Hey Joelle,

Try something like this:

Facebook:

Twitter:
https://twitter.com/share?text=I%20just%20donated%20to%20%40Your%20Org,%20please%20consider%20doing%20the%20same.&url=https://www.yourorg.org/forms/donate

LinkedIn:

You are going to have to play with some of the parameters as I haven't fully got thiese working exactly how I want them too, but you should be able to insert these links over copy/image to get what you want.

It works in my OLX confirmation emails and in RENXT email.

Thanks,

Phil
