ACY Mailing 8.7.3 - manual editing of emails not possible

Adrienne

As of ACYM Starter 8.7.3, it is not possible to edit out (or in) Joomla Article blocks by hand, or at least we haven+t found a way to do it.
There are many situations in which we want ti be able to edit any portion of a Joomla Article block prior to sending out the email.
Intro texts frequently have plugin commands that but be eliminated manually.

We understand that the content is taken as-is from Joomla articles, but there must be a way to edit it at will.

Hi,

I'm afraid this is not possible. Please feel free to post your idea on our feature request page: https://www.acymailing.com/feature-requests/?cache=nope

That really is a huge functional oversight which renders email messages built from Joomla article blocks practically unusable.

The way I get around this is to use introtext for the email version of an article when it has codes that need editing out. I set the article to not display introtext in the Options inside of Joomla.

wbaccus Thanks for the tip. However, it is much too cumbersome.
I stand by my assessment that not being able to edit out content once the email message is generated is a huge flaw and a step backwards from AXYM 5.x.
