To create a link to a page defined in Sites & settings, a Communication Preferences Form, a web page version of an email message, or a desktop or mobile version of your content, select Create link to special page. In the Page field, select the option to link. The options that appear in this field generate in one of four ways. |
|
|
The home page, user login page, and privacy page you define in Sites & settings appear. For more information, see Page settings. |
Note: In addition to the user login page you define in Sites & settings, additional user login pages appear so you can select the password reset page on your website. When you include this page link in email messages and an email recipient clicks the link, a secure page appears with a Forgotten Password field for the user to enter their email address. This link remains active in the email for the user to take action to reset the password any time. After the email address is submitted on the web page, another email sends to the user. That email contains another link that returns the user to the reset password page on your website.

Pages that include a Communication Preferences Form appear. For more information, see the Form Types. |

When you use the HTML editor to design an email message, the View email message on web page option appears. Select this to provide a way for email recipients to view your email design on a web page. You do not manually create the page the email message appears on and you cannot open it in Pages & templates. The program automatically renders your HTML email design to display the message and you can only access it from the link in the message. |
Note: To test the link, send a test message. The link does not work when you preview the message.

When you design a layout, Menu part, or Formatted Text and Images part, the View desktop version and View mobile version options appear. You can create links to one or both options to allow users to toggle between the desktop and mobile versions of your content. |
Note: To include a link to the mobile version of your content, you must first create a mobile optimized layout and style sheet. For more information, see Style Sheets
