BlogTally Emails
You can customize the e-mail template that will be sent to your subscribers when a new blog post is published, or you can use the default template.
Here is an example of a custom email template made with MJML:
MJML syntax
The templating system is based on the MJML syntax. More information on MJML syntax can be found in the MJML documentation and you can use the MJML live editor to test your template. It is possible to start from pre-built templates and adapt them to your needs.
Mustache syntax
MJML templates can be customized with variables. Variables are replaced by their values when the email is sent. You can use the Mustache syntax to manipulate variables in your template. Look at the default email template to see how variables are used.
