When you are in the content tab of the email builder, you will see the "Validate" button.
Clicking on this button initiates a validation process that checks your email for potential errors.
The purpose of this validation is to ensure that your email is error-free.
By validating your email, you can identify and address any issues or mistakes before sending it out, ultimately improving the quality and effectiveness of your email communication.
Some of the errors that you may see are yellow or red errors
Examples of Yellow errors
If you have chosen to include a link for an image in the email but have not entered a valid URL into the hyperlink input, the image will be missing its associated link.
Without a valid URL, the image will not be clickable, and the link will not function as intended. Make sure to insert a valid URL into the hyperlink input to ensure that your image has a functioning link or ensure the tick box is ticked to dont include a Hyperlink.
An example of this is below
When there are missing links from CTA buttons (Call to Action buttons), such as when a valid URL is not inserted, recipients may encounter broken buttons. It is crucial to provide a valid URL for the CTA buttons so that when users click on them, they are directed to the intended destination.
To avoid broken buttons, ensure that you insert the appropriate URLs for your CTA buttons, allowing recipients to smoothly navigate to the desired webpages or actions.
