Email Editor

The email editor lets you customize the transactional emails your board sends without asking Cavuno to deploy code. Use it to edit subject lines, inbox preview text, and rich-text body content for each supported email template.

Open the email editor

1. Go to Board settings in the sidebar
2. Click Email editor
3. Choose a template from the dropdown in the top bar

Each board has one email editor workspace. Switching templates keeps your unsaved edits in memory, so you can update several templates and save them together.

Edit content

Each template has three editable areas:

• Subject: The email subject line
• Preview text: The short inbox preview shown by many email clients
• Body: The rich-text content rendered inside your branded email layout

Use the body editor for headings, paragraphs, links, bold text, and buttons. When your cursor is outside the body, the preview shows sample values for tokens so you can see how the email will look to recipients. Click into the body to edit the raw token text.

Use tokens

Tokens are placeholders wrapped in double braces, such as {{board_name}}, {{company_name}}, or {{action_url}}. Cavuno replaces them with real values when the email is sent.

Some templates require specific tokens. For example, verification, magic-link, and password-reset templates need {{action_url}} so the email contains a working button link. If a required token is missing, the editor blocks saving and shows which template needs attention.

Job alert digest emails also support dynamic job-list content. The editor preview renders sample job rows, while real sends render the matching jobs for each subscriber.

Configure shared footer settings

Footer settings are shared across templates. You can customize:

• Powered-by text and Cavuno branding visibility
• Social handles and links
• Custom footer links
• Manage-preferences and unsubscribe label text

These settings are template-agnostic, so changing them once applies to every customizable email.

Preview and test

The editor preview uses your board's current logo, colors, fonts, footer links, and sample token values. Use Send test to send the rendered email to your inbox through the same email pipeline used for real sends.

Always send a test after changing required tokens, button text, footer links, manage-preferences labels, or unsubscribe labels.

Save and publish

Changes are not saved automatically. To publish your work:

1. Click Save
2. Review any required-token warnings
3. Fix the listed templates if needed
4. Save again

Published customizations apply to future sends only. Emails already sent are not changed.
