CiviCRM CiviMail and Archiving your Mailings

 Just noticed this token to add a link to your CiviMail "Having trouble viewing this email? Click here to view it on our website."  

It is a bit tricky but here are the steps.

Step 2 in the mailing make sure to check

Step 3 of the mailing insert the token

Once the token is in place remove it into your clipboard (CTRL-X or Command-X)

Now type the Link you want people to see

 

Then using the Link icon select the wording and chose the icon and it will open up the link window. Note the two settings

Now you should have the results below and you are ready to send. You will also see below the email and the page I see when I click that link.

Then in the email

Then when you click the link

Not counting my Commodore 64 years, I began my IT career when Windows 95 hit the scene and Google was just a glimmer on the Californian horizon. I discovered Drupal four years ago when it was giving Joomla a run for its money.
 
At the time, I was working as the IT manager at the National Priorities Project (NPP). We were using Joolma and getting about 200,000 visitors a month and the site was not scaling well.  I saw the limits of Joomla and the promise of Drupal 4 with its taxonomy system, clean urls, and security features.  I converted NPP to Drupal and migrated their main database,  http://nationalpriorities.org/nppdatabase_tool, from webobjects to a Drupal-friendly structure in MySQL.  Still not satisfied, I moved NPP’s constituent data (including their 25,000 member email list) out of the expensive Raiser's Edge and into the free and open source CiviCRM 1.8, saving the company money that it was spending on their desktop software.
 
Thus began my commitment to supporting non-profits by creating affordable, custom-built content management systems in Drupal and CiviCRM. I founded River Valley Tech Collective as a collaborative team of other like-minded techies to provide Drupal-driven sites to a wider range of non-profits, educational institutions and local community organizations.
