How to create a new Email template?
Email Templates are there to create Confirmations, Templates to send Payment links, Pre-arrival emails etc., in order to send to the guest per email. In this article we show you the base steps of how to create such templates.
Templates are created in the Notification Center, which can be found in Settings - Emails.
- Go to the main menu on the left hand side of your screen:

 
9 Steps to follow in order to create a new non existing Template:
1. Click on Create New:

Examples:
Via Examples on the left of the screen you can choose a Default template that is already prepared. 
(You can still adjust anything after choosing the default template afterwards, yet it is a good base , and the most common documents are in the template list, such as Confirmation, Booking Cancellation, Pre-arrival etc. Creating a template from scratch is possible for those who are more familiar with the notification center.)
2. The notification center will open up.
- Assign a name to your template for internal reference, and specify a title that will appear to guests when they receive the email.

 
3. Amending the Default Template can be done by clicking once on the field you would like to adjust. The toolbar that appears will allow you to adjust the text's appearance.
☝️Mind you: 
The elements with a dotted line around them will need to stay untouched! See image below: Customer Name and Venue name have a dotted line and these will automatically be prefilled according the reservation details when you send out the email from the reservation.

4. Using the same default template as an example, when an image should be added, click on the field and go to Upload image or insert a URL of the image you want to upload:

- By clicking on Upload image you can drag the image from in your computer files to the field applicable in the notification center. 

 
- The image will be uploaded instantly and pasted in the concerning field:
