    Use drag-and-drop builder

    The functionality of the myGift builder is consistent with the formSPACE and eMarketing module. Regular saving is strongly recommended. There are three parts to building a campaign:

    • Add sections
    • Add items
    • Style content

    Add sections

    To add a section to a template:

    • Select the relevant style using drag-and-drop action to create

    Add items

    To add items to a section in a template:

    • Select the relevant item using drag-and-drop action onto the relevant section.
    • Select the item on the page to open the builder.

    The following table and screenshots provide details of the functionality of each item:
