It is important to add an unsubscribe link to your campaigns as it can result in getting black listed (your emails get automatically spammed) if you do not provide an unsubscribe link or angry customers.
Promote - customer contact - manage templates
Edit/create the template
Copy the token {UNSUBSCRIBE_URL}
A line of text to your template something like 'If you wish to unsubscribe from our mailing list please click here'
Select/highlight the word unsubscribe
Click on the link symbol in the toolbar
This will bring up the link properties. Set the information exactly like below:
- Link Type = URL
- Protocol = <other>
- URL = {UNSUBSCRIBE_URL}
Press OK
Repeat for {MARKETING_PREFERENCES_URL} if you have this line of text added.
Remember to press to save your changes!
Please note: The unsubscribe link will NOT work until the campaign email is sent as it need the customer's profile to generate a URL
