Dyamic Teamraiser Link through Email Campaign?

Matt E · January 2016

Greetings,

We have 16 events under the same umbrella (so, 16 different teamraisers), and I would like to send out an Email Campaign to all of them, that has a link to their login page.

I've tried S48 and S42 in the link target to try and add the fr-id into the URL, but when i look at the preview/tests, it just is blank where the tags are.

Is there a different way of doing this?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I just sort of got dropped in the middle of this :-)

Hi Matt,

Just so I get a little more information, why are you e-mailing every TeamRaiser participant their login page info? Is this a link to their participant center? This would probably be better handled via a coaching e-mail than a broadcast e-mail.

You could do this with conditional content. Each TeamRaiser has groups and you could set up STags for each group to see their specific login link. Check out these links in the community: https://community.blackbaud.com/forums/viewtopic/1/2241?post_id=2241#p2241 and https://community.blackbaud.com/forums/viewtopic/1/16648?post_id=53689#p53689 .

Here is an example of something we did:

[[?[[S45:XXXXXX]]::TRUE::

                                                                           <p style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Tahoma', 'Verdana', 'Helvetica', 'Arial', sans-serif; font-weight: normal; text-align: left; line-height: 19px; font-size: 14px; margin: 0 0 10px 20px; padding: 0;" align="left">Link to TR #1 login.</p>

                                                                       ::
[[?[[S45:XXXXXX]]::TRUE::
                                                                           <p style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Tahoma', 'Verdana', 'Helvetica', 'Arial', sans-serif; font-weight: normal; text-align: left; line-height: 19px; font-size: 14px; margin: 0 0 10px 20px; padding: 0;" align="left">Link to TR #2 login.</p>
                                                                       ::

                                                                           <p style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Tahoma', 'Verdana', 'Helvetica', 'Arial', sans-serif; font-weight: normal; text-align: left; line-height: 19px; font-size: 14px; margin: 0 0 10px 20px; padding: 0;" align="left">You know that providing hope to families like Talia’s is why Lurie Children’s has a relentless committment to building on its promise to lead the way in pediatric medicine and science.</p>

                                                                       ]]

Where the XXXXX are your group ids. You would just build this out until you had all 16 teamraisers covered. Now you would have to consider that some constituents could be part of multiple TeamRaisers, so you would need to take that into account. Those users would see multiple links in their e-mail. The final section after the :: displays copy if none of the constituents you sent to were in any of those TR groups.

Thanks,

Phil

The way Phil has the conditional now is nested (though one set of closing brackets were missing.)

[[?[[S45:12345]]::TRUE::

   LINK ONE

::
    [[?[[S45:67890]]::TRUE::
        LINK TWO
     ::

        LINK DEFAULT

     ]]

]]

So the user would only get the first match, not a link to every TR they were part of. You can only nest about 15-20 deep.

The other option is to do them serially, which would give a link to every TR.

[[?[[S45:12345]]::TRUE::

    LINK ONE

::

    

]]

[[?[[S45:67890]]::TRUE::

    LINK TWO

::

    

]]
