Get To Know the Anatomy / Layout of Email Builder

The picture above is the layout of the email builder available at KIRIM.EMAIL In general there are only 3 (three) main sections, which include:

  • Header
  • Canvas
  • Tools Panel

Header

The header is the very top of the email builder. Consists of 6 main buttons which include:

  • The Templates button functions to select a builder email template available at KIRIM.EMAIL, both free and paid.
  • The Save button is used to save your design into a template. Then the design that you make will be stored on the KIRIM.EMAIL server and you can use it anytime. The Export button functions to convert the e-mail that you created in the e-mail builder into a template. The template that you export is a .JSON file extension. With this file you can open templates on other devices so that the design and content will be exactly the same as what you created before.
  • The Import button functions to insert the template into the email builder. In the future we will provide several free and paid templates that you can enter through this import button. Or if you have a designer team that is specifically in charge of creating email templates, you can import them via this butto
  • The Publish button is used to publish the email you created and will go to the next step in your process of creating an email broadcast, autoresponder or automation.
  • Close button works to exit from the email builder. You need to note that after clicking the close button, the last display will be saved in the browser. So that when you open the email builder at a later date, the first design and content that you create will appear first, as long as you don’t delete the Cache and the Cookies.

Canvas

Canvas is a place to design and write your e-mail content. When you open the email builder for the first time, the appearance that appears on the canvas is like the picture below.

This is the default template that you can adjust its contents. So you no longer need to make an email from scratch. You only need to click on the contents, then edit, duplicate, delete or add new content blocks.

On this canvas there are also Undo and Redo features that you can use to undo previous actions. For example you accidentally delete content; you can restore your content with this Undo and Redo features.

Not only had that feature, this section also provides Preview to see how your email will look on both desktop and mobile devices.
