Bring back advanced options in rich text editor

Bring back advanced options in rich text editor

Hi all,

Disappointed to see some missing features in the re-release of the rich text editor in emails. Specifically, I'm looking for the very useful advanced tabs when working with hyperlinks. I don't have a screenshot of what it used to look like, but you used to be able to drop in style information under an Advanced Link Settings tab.

Since the release, you now have to achieve this by editing the HTML, which is more complicated and prone to error. I would much rather have a simpler interface, especially since not all of our Marketo users are comfortable using HTML. I reached out to support and it sounds like this was a deliberate change with no intent to return the functionality (without community support ).

Thanks for your time, let me know if you need clarification.

We couldn't agree more. Bring it back, Marketo!

Amen! Please don't make me write code Marketo... It's just dangerous!

There's actually a way to revert back to the old editor if you wanted.

Just go to Admin -> Email -> Edit Editor Settings and switch to Legacy.

See this thread:

New Text Editor is ****

At this very moment, we're working on adding advanced options for images and links. Should come October or November.
