More than 1 TOKEN in an EMAIL TEMPLATE button URL

Hey,

I am placing 2 tokens in a URL button on my email template.  It does not work...as far as I know.

{{my.YouTube Link}}{{my.utm_webinar}}youtube-link

Has anyone else had this issue with tokens in an email template button?

No need to shout.

I don't know what the content is of those tokens, but you should be able to do

     <a href="http​://{{my.token 1}}?{{my.token 2}}">

without issue. Note keeping the protocol (http​:// or http​s://) hard-coded is the correct practice.

Thanks, Sanford. 

And you think it would work in the 2.0 email templates?  Within the button link?email template.JPG

Where one token works, two should as well.

What happens when you keep the protocol out of the link and use 2 tokens? Of course you need to make sure the resulting URL would be well-formed.

Be careful when you use tokens for URLs with no spacing in between - it could break the URL

{{my.YouTube Link}}{{my.utm_webinar}}

Change the name of the token to {{my.YouTube-Link}} ==> Add a dash
