Click “Add a Filter...” to add a filter to designate which teams will be included in the content. Available filters are: Advantage, Division, Gender, Result, School, Season, Sport, Team, and Type. A new “Add a Filter...” dropdown will appear to select another filter. Use the “ - ” icon next to a filter to remove it. Saving the configuration without any filters will include all teams.

Expand the “Content Details” menu.

Under Content Details, choose which elements of the displayed events you would like to display. These can be:

  • Icon/Color

  • Team Name

  • School Name

  • Opponent

  • Date

  • Time

  • Advantage

  • Location

  • Dismissal Time

  • Departure Time

  • Return Time

  • Pickup Time

  • Transportation

  • Status

  • Result

  • Score

  • Read More

  • Recap (not recommended)

  • Custom Directions (not recommended)

Recap and Custom Directions content are not recommended because they may contain HTML content that’s not compatible with the email format. This may cause the content to display incorrectly or break the email’s formatting, especially on responsive (mobile) displays.

Each of these fields can be given custom formatting once you select them. Choose a different font family, font size, alignment, font weight, and color for each detail to give a thoroughly unique look to your dynamic content. "Inherit Element Font" will use the font set in the “Formatting” menu below.

Expand the “Formatting” menu.

Formatting allows you to designate how many events will appear, what order they’ll appear in, the date format, the spacing between events, and whether to link the event title back to the default athletic page. You can also customize the font that athletic content will use in the message.

Once you have configured the settings, click “Save” at the lower right to finalize the configuration. Your configuration will then be available to use in the Message and Template editor.
