What Are Modules?
Modules are pre-built layout blocks that can be reused across email campaigns. They help your team build emails faster while ensuring design consistency.

Use categories to organize your modules for easy access and use.
Go to the Modules section in Admin.
Click Add Category.

View, edit, or delete categories as needed.
Pro Tip: Set up categories before building modules. This makes assigning them easier during creation.

Troubleshooting:
Text Replaced When Updating Modules
If text is deleted and replaced in a module, the email may still show outdated placeholder text. To fix this:
Merge the new module version.
Manually update the text.
Important: Check the Optimize tab for Out of Date Modules.
Unlocked module sections won't update automatically to avoid overwriting changes. To update formatting while keeping text editable, lock the formatting section and leave text unlocked. Learn more about editor restrictions.
