Email Template - Event Cancellation for Online Orders
This article will walk you through basic settings for your emails that go out for an event cancellation of an event your customers bought online.
Step 1 - Navigate to the Template Editor
Once you're logged into your organization's Trackside site, the first thing we need to do is navigate to the page dedicated to edit the email template for this scenario. Start by hovering over Configuration in your Management Menu.
Next you're going to hover over Trackside.
Then hover over Email Templates.
Lastly, Event Cancellation for Online Orders sounds oddly specific to our needs right now, doesn't it? Go ahead and click on that.
Step 2 - Edit the Email Template
This will bring us to the page for editing the email template. Remember that this email is specific to the users that have bought tickets to this event specifically on your Trackside site. On this page, you will find a basic text editor with a toolbar for formatting that contains the preset message that will go out in these emails. You may customize it to your needs how you see fit or start from scratch.
Toward the bottom of the page you will find a list of tags that may be used in the email. You can infer their purposes from how they're used in the default email. Most of them are pulled from the order associated with the account the email is being delivered to, so the ones that look like they'll be specific to the order, in fact are.
Don't forget to save your work when you're done.
For reference, in case you delete it and want it back, here is the default formatted email:
