How do I configure a Tell-a-Friend (TAF) link in a non-Email Campaign WYSIWYG?

Options

There are four ways to add a Tell A Friend link in the WYSIWYG.  Note: these will work in "Normal view" or "Source view".  The first three options will not work in any email, the fourth will only work in an email, and none of them work in autoresponders.

1) You can add an S-tag: ] to the WYSIWYG. This will add your "Tell A Friend" icon as a link. When the constituent clicks on that button, it will take them to a new page so that they can tell a friend.

2) You can add an S-tag: ] to the WYSIWYG. This will also add your "Tell A Friend" icon as a link. When the constituent clicks on that button, it will bring up a pop up window so that they can tell a friend.

3) You can create a URL link: The following code can be used  in most all content, e.g. PageBuilder page, StoryBuilder article, etc..

<a href="TellAFriend?page=]]]>"YOUR TEXT HERE</a>

You will have to edit the HTML source to make this change.  You also can use the following similar code to "Forward some other PageBuilder page":

<a href="TellAFriend?page=]">YOUR TEXT HERE</a>

...where XXXXXXX is the name of the PageBuilder page.

4) In the WYSIWYG, highlight some text and click on the button to insert a Convio specific link.  Select "Email" and then select "Forward this message".

  • What is the fourth way?

  • Good catch!  I updated the article.

  • Thank you for sharing this information. I'm actually looking for how I can configure a Tell-a-Friend (TAF) link specifically in a Email Campaign WYSIWYG. Other posts say this can be done by choosing the Links drop-down menu, but I do not have any drop-down menus in my WYSIWYG. Is there another way?
