Introduction

Whenever you publish or schedule a new blog post, you can email your subscribers to inform them about it.

These emails will use the blog email template by default. You can customize this template further or use it as is to immediately email your subscribers about the new post.

By default, your blog email template will contain one Full post email section, but you can customize it however you'd like, add new sections & more!

You can preview how different posts look in this email template, but when the email is actually sent, it will always use the post you've created the email from.
