Add Dynamic Fields to Emails and Pages

Add merge tags to your email to make it more directed toward the recipient, or add them to pages to reflect the event information. The system will replace these variables with contact information or event information present in our system.

You can choose from a list a merge tags available for the email or the page. It can be a merge tag for event information, order information or attendee information.

For example, you can place a merge tag for the first name in an email template so that the greeting includes the recipient's name rather than a generic “Hello!”

You can even add a QR code merge tag so that the attendee's QR code would appear in the email.

How to Find the List of Merge Tags

If you're editing a page or the advanced email template builder, click on the text object in your template, then click Merge Tags from the toolbar. There is also a Merge Tags button on top of the editor.

If you're editing an Engage Email, click View Dynamic Values to see the list of merge tags.

Merge Tags for Order Form Fields

If ticket buyer or holder order form fields are enabled, merge tags will be generated for these fields for the order confirmation and reminder emails.

Notes:

  • Merge tags will not be generate for conditional questions, image upload and file upload.

  • Form field merge tags will also be generated for exhibitor approval emails.
