In the email Design Editor, it would be great to have the ability to save layouts with content as modules in a Shared Layout Library. This library could be accessed and its modules re-used by any email or template.

Say, for instance that you are creating multiple email templates. You've spent the time creating various layouts within the email template (i.e. image on left with headline and copy on right) all formatted to the required specifications. Now say that one of these layout is needed when creating other templates, right now you'd have to recreate it for each new template. If a layout could be saved and shared between emails, then when creating new templates/emails that required a specific layout (i.e. image on left with headline and copy on right), then it would be just a matter of selecting from the shared layout library.

This could also be extended and integrated with Dynamic and Shared Content in Eloqua so that these could be dropped seamlessly into any email or template.

Thank you for submitting your idea. We are very interested in your thoughts on any features you would like to see in our product. This feature was delivered with Eloqua 21D release along with new certificate management screen in settings to display all certificates and expiry dates.

    I"m finding that this would be great.  I did create a template that had "everything but the kitchen sink"  but 1) it's a pain to DELETE things you don't need (not to mention time-consuming", and 2) I have added new "content blocks" to my design library since then--and haven't added them to that template (largely due to the aforementioned pain of having to delete things you don't need).

    This would be super to have and save me a lot of time having to recreate certain sections of emails as I mix and match from previous designs.

  • @Lin Rocha @Cheli great feature request. This is actually in the works. Hoping for a limited CA with 20A release (Safe Harbor). Happy to share our current vision and get your feedback.

    Thanks,
