Countdown Timer Placeholder in Template Sharing
The Problem Statement ❓
In the past, when a user shared or continued an email template that included a countdown timer, the timer element would be removed. This led to confusion and required users to manually reinsert the timer each time.
Now, when you share or continue a template with a countdown timer, a placeholder will appear instead of the timer being deleted.
- No lost timers: The timer’s position is preserved.
- Saves time: No more manual reinsertion after sharing.
- Clear workflow: It is easy to see where to add a new timer.
- Compatible with all templates: The placeholder appears in both new and existing templates.
- Navigate to Marketing → Email Builder
- Open or create a template featuring a countdown timer
- Share or continue the template in another location
- The destination will display a countdown timer placeholder instead of a deleted timer
- Preview your changes as necessary
The placeholder is purely for positioning and is not a functional timer.
This feature helps maintain consistent layouts when collaborating.
It works in all email templates that include countdown timers.
