Add dynamic content to a message

It's possible to sync dynamic content into a message using the Dynamic Content feature in Messages. This means that each message will populate with the most current and updated content from each of the following modules: Athletics Manager, Calendars (New Calendars module or Calendar Manager), and Posts. This article will focus on how it works to add dynamic content into a message or template using the Messages editor.

Before adding dynamic content into a message layout or template, you need to configure the settings for each content area (Athletics Manager, Calendars, and Posts) in the Dynamic Content tab in Messages left navigation. Once you've configured settings there, you are ready to add boxes into your message where this configured content will display. 

Step 1: Add Dynamic Content into the layout

• In the message editor, drag a Dynamic Content block into the message layout.
• Once you see your Dynamic Content Block in the message, click on the block to define which content configuration to use. You'll choose from Athletics Manager, Calendar, and Post.
• Select your Content and choice of configuration from the list.

Step 2: Preview your content

The dynamic content placeholder block will appear in the template and the message.

• Use the Test Send feature or click the Preview Message icon to preview the content that will be shown in the block, when creating the message.

Step 3: Adjust your configurations as needed
