  • Re: Text on top of image
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 01-14-2015

    As @Shannan notes you can think of the task as adding a background-image to text, not the other way 'round. And its use is not llimited to tables; for example, a simple A tag can have style="background: transparent url(http://example.com/img/background.png) center center no-repeat;"etc.I strongly di...

    As @Adam W said, if content changes end up affecting deliverability, they will in turn affect openability.A low ratio of text to image area is considered spammy (error-prone or not, this relationship is coded into major anti-spam software, based on the practice of hiding text within large images). ...

    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 01-14-2015

    OK, thanks. Small suggestion: Get Usage shouldn't itself count toward the limit. Operational queries like that could have their own limit.

    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 01-14-2015

    Yeah, the problem with that UI is it doesn't get updated immediately and it's the total for 7 days. With multiple apps running it is difficult to isolate what is being counted.I see that REST (I have been using SOAP) has the Get Daily Usage method, so that should work. I can already see that gettin...

  • Re: Marketo Encoded URL
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 01-13-2015

    The closest to this kind of obfuscation (or "friendliness," if you will) is the TITLE attribute, not ALT. The ALT is designed to be displayed in place of the image when the image is not available or when the device does not support images, not as a tooltip above a successfully loaded image.However,...

    For queries that return startPosition/remainingCount to paginate 10 at a time, is only the first SOAP call counted against the limit of 10,000 API "calls," or is each page counted?

  • Email Link Perf reports: group by URL ignoring Query String?
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 12-09-2014 quickview

    In reports of type Email Link Performance, every unique URL, including the Query String, is given its own line under the E-mail name.We always add a unique ID in the QS (linked to the lead ID) for all outgoing mail. (Note: this is the only way to get Munchkin to track web pages by Marketo Lead, so ...

    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 12-08-2014

    Marketo has no way to mandate that a given Lead is included in a Smart List. Users cannot be trusted to always include specific clauses in their SLs. Thus the only way to ensure that Leads receive an e-mail or range of e-mails is to use trigger logic.For example, if our web video team always must be...

    I have a Smart Campaign w/Smart List that catches any 'Email is Delivered' activity (for any e-mail).My goal is to use the 'Alert' type of Flow step to send that same Email to a particular e-mail address.However, if I use the token {{Trigger.Name}} in the Email field on the Flow step, I get the erro...
