Asset HTML Syntax

Editable Areas

To make an element editable place the HTML attribute on an Element:​ dccontenteditable="true“

Please note, all inline styling on the element that has the dccontenteditable="true“ will also be editable. Where possible place the attribute on a new span to keep styling locked:

Snippets

  • To allow an area to be available to snippets use a <section> element. 
  • Use data-snippet=""  attribute to filter all snippets in DC to only the specified snippets to this region. 
  • Use dccontenteditable="false” to stop the snippet from becoming an editable region. 
  • Snippets are Global! This means that if all snippets have the same selector:
    • i.e. data-snippet="2020_05_CAT_EM" 
    • Then all snippets will be available to that area. If you edit the snippet in the asset suite, then it will be instantly updated for selection for all emails. 
    • It will not update emails that currently use the snippet, it will only users that then select the snippet after it has been updated. 
    • There is only one snippet regardless of whether it appears in the Template or a live email.
