There will be used the standard templates of Avendoo® basically. If you want to adjust them, please contact the Avendoo® Support.
Alternatively you can create your own e-mail templates and you can set them as standard for your event. The e-mail template, which is configured in the drop down menu, will be sent as standard. If you send e-mails manually, for example invitation e-mails, you can also use other e-mail templates. If you send e-mails automatically always the configured standard will be sent.

Enter a significant subject line for your e-mail template.
E-mail text
Below you the text of the standard template. You can change it via the editor or you can write a completely new text. We recommend to use the existing variable for sending a personal designation and important data.
Once you click in the text field, the editor opens. Via the icon Insert mail variable () you can insert further mail variables. You get a list with usable mail variables. Further existing variables are not allowed to be used for this e-mail type and thus they are not listed. Select the appropriate mail variable in the list and confirm your selection via OK. The variable will be inserted then into the text. Also you can format the text, for example: the font, the font size, the listing.
Below the text field you can link the event, which you currently create. Therefore click on the button Link (this event). Then an appropriate link will be generated and be inserted in the text. The link will be inserted at that position, at which the cursor is.
Furthermore you can create a link directly to a learning object. Select via the drop down menu one of the available learning objects and click on the button Link (learning object). Also a link will be generated and be inserted at that position, at which the cursor is.
