If you create content on social media and other platforms (like Patreon or Etsy), you may want to send your subscribers to those pages from your emails. Luckily, with our link group feature, adding links to your Broadcasts and Sequences has never been easier!
How to set up links
Start by clicking anywhere in the body of your email. You’ll see the (+) sign pop up on the left-hand side of the email editor.
Scroll down until you see the Link Group option, and select it with your cursor. After clicking Link Group, the link group block will show up in the body of your email.
Voila!
Now you're ready to customize your links.
Adding links
To add a link to your platform of choice, click the Add link button and enter your URL.
NOTE: Be sure to add the URL (e.g. https://instagram.com/kit) rather than your handle (e.g., @kit).
Customizing individual links
Once you’ve added your link URL, you’ll be able to customize the text, icon, and URL from the right sidebar.
Customizing link styles
To edit the appearance of all links, click any link to navigate to the Link Group tab in the right sidebar.
NOTE: Double-check that the right sidebar menu says Email > Section > Link Group and not Email > Section > Link Group > Link. The latter displays settings for customizing individual links (instead of the styles for all links).
From here, you’ll be able to change the appearance of your links (background color, font size, icon color, border style, etc). You can also choose whether you want to use icons with the Show icons toggle (not pictured above).
Removing links
If you want to remove the entire link group, place your cursor before or after the link group.
Then, hit either the Delete button (if your cursor is before the link group) or the Backspace button (if your cursor is after the link group) on your keyboard until all the links have been removed.
Frequently asked questions
Is it possible to upload custom icons?
Not yet, but we do provide an “External link” icon in case you want to use a platform that doesn’t currently have an icon.
