How do I add an opt-out link at the top of my email?

Robly automatically places an opt-out link in the footer of every email you send out. But oftentimes, it’s a great idea to put one at the top, too. This can help prevent SPAM complaints because people may be more likely to opt out if they see that option immediately (ie before they get to the bottom of the email). Here’s how to add one to your campaign:

1. Click Edit under the campaign name you want to add the opt-out link to in Email > Campaigns:

2. Scroll down to the Content section, and click Edit Design.

3. Click Rows, and drag a new, full-width row to the top of your email.

4. Click the Content tab. Then, drag a Text content module into the row you just created.

5. Now, you’ll insert a merge tag that will display as “Unsubscribe” in your sent campaign. Replace the filler text with the text you want around the word Unsubscribe, for example, “Click here to.” Then, click Special Links > Links and select Unsubscribe. 

6. The final version should look something like this.

7. You can also adjust the formatting to match the rest of your campaign.

8. Send yourself a test email by clicking Options > Send Test Email to check out how it looks!

This is how the test email should look.

If you are using our original editor, follow these instructions:

Robly automatically places an opt-out link in the footer of every email you send out – but oftentimes it’s a great idea to put one at the top, too – this can help prevent SPAM complaints because people may be more likely to opt out if they see that option immediately (ie before they get to the bottom of the email).

1. First, click EDIT under the campaign name you want to add the opt-out link to in Campaigns.

2. Drag a text module in at the top of your email. Ideally your opt-out link should be at the very top. *Note that if you have a header image at the top, you may need to drag your text module in beneath the header image, then drag your header image below the text module.

3. Drag the logo down.

4. We are going to insert a merge tag that will display as “Unsubscribe.” So replace the filler text with the text you want around the word Unsubscribe, for example, “Click Here to.” Then, click the Merge Tag button and pick Unsubscribe Link:

5. This is what it should look like:

6. Now, adjust the padding (5 on top and 5 on bottom is generally good) and background color of your text module to match the rest of your campaign, if need be.

7. Now, send yourself a test email (hit the Send Test button in the editor) to check out how it looks. This is what you should see.
