Re: Getting started with Velocity scripting

by Phillip_Wild 01-22-2018

Thanks everyone!Yep, familiar with the Apache user guide Justin. Sanford's stuff is indeed excellent - but before now I had thought it might have been a bit too "teknkl" (sorry, couldn't help myself!) But Sanford, I am a subscriber ( I get the new post notifications anyway), so I might have a bit of...

Getting started with Velocity scripting

by Phillip_Wild 01-22-2018

Hi allI've got a couple of team members that I'd like to use more email scripting with Velocity. The problem is that they are marketers - and the Velocity documentation I've found so far isn't something very comprehensible for those who haven't used programming languages before. Is there something y...

Re: Regular and consistent "malformed links"

by Phillip_Wild 01-05-2018

Thinking about it....could I run a smart list based on "clicked link is malformed link"? Or something similar? To try and find the specific leads that clicked the link?If that's possible, then I could theoretically click every link sequentially from my profile and see which one turns up as a "malfor...

Re: Regular and consistent "malformed links"

by Phillip_Wild 01-02-2018

Great thoughts Sanford. There is always a possibility of the Velocity scripts doing something funky. But...my gut feel is that this shouldn't be a problem in the send where the malformed links are being registered. Our newsletter has some scripts in it, but they only affected the footer, and a minor...

Campaign and program tokens within an email script

by Phillip_Wild 11-24-2017

Can I access campaign and program tokens from within a script? I don't see them on the right hand side panel when I load a script token, so I don't think I can, unfortunately. And you can't use a "token within a token" so I can't simply use {{campaign.name}}. What I'd like to do is to have an email ...

Re: Fall Release: Sending emails based on recipient timezone!

by Phillip_Wild 11-23-2017

Shame we can't use another field ....we use ISOCountry on the Account to determine when to send (we're very global). But this is a significant improvement. I remember being able to do this in Eloqua by throwing to a subroutine program, but there was no easy solution in Marketo. This will help!
