Overview
This article will show you some examples and tips on how to create email templates and paste the code into Trail Blazer as a template. Feel free to utilize any of the code as a shell to get you started. A good rule of thumb when e-blasting is “measure twice, cut once” in other words test, test, test on all available browsers and devices.

#1 Standard 600px Width – Header, Body and Footer (Trail Blazer Compatible Code for Copying)
#2 Copy and Paste Code into Trail Blazer and Save as a Template
#3 Mobile Friendly Template (Trail Blazer Compatible)
#4 Political or Nonprofit Advanced Template (Header, Body, Right Column, Links, Buttons and Footer)
#5 Related Resources
Tip - Email: When creating email templates focus more on content than an elaborate design like you might want in in a webpage. Don’t link to external style sheets and don’t use JavaScript.
Tip - Article Navigation: Use the Ctrl+F hot key to jump to different sections using keywords like #1, #2, Related Resources
Tip - Developer:
- In HTML <!-- COMMENTS ARE WRITTEN LIKE THIS, USEFUL FOR LEAVING NOTES OR FINDING SECTIONS. -->.
- In CSS /*COMMENTS LOOK */.
- Trail Blazer’s email composer will render code in different ways and sometimes strip it out altogether. For best results use the most basic html and inline css and focus more on content.
#1 Standard 600px Width – Header, Body and Footer (Trail Blazer Compatible Code for Copying)

<!--HEADER/BANNER START-->
<!-- This is the body <tag> where you can switch out the background color, change the font for the entire document, control margins and many other things. Different browsers may or may not play nice with some of these attributes, so test extensively -->
<!--Control the banner image here. It’s highly advised to prep the image to have the same dimensions as the cell/table that will be holding it. You should upload the image to your Trail Blazer Application Menu https://www.trailblz.info/YourDatabaseName/upload.aspx and use that as the source URL-->

Tip - Trail Blazer: Trail Blazer will automatically list your organizations name and address at the bottom of email campaigns. If you have admin access you can control this by following Application Menu > System Manager > Lists > Committee or Organization.

#2 Copy and Paste Code into Trail Blazer and Save as a Template
Copy the code from section #1 into your clipboard by highlighting and clicking Ctrl+C or right-click and select Copy.
Open your Trail Blazer database and follow Application Menu > Email Campaigns > Templates
Click [Search] in the upper left to pull up all of the templates you created and either open one to make modifications or click [+ New] to create a new one. In my example I clicked [+ New] to create and save a new template.
Give the template a Name and Subject Line.
Click the [Advanced] tab at the bottom of the email composer.
Highlight the <body> tags and click Ctrl+V or right-click and select Paste to insert the code that’s in your clipboard. In this example I right-clicked and selected Paste.
After you paste in the code click back on the [Advanced] tab and click [Yes] when prompted.
This will render the code in Trail Blazer’s composer. Click [Save and Close] to finish.
You can now utilize this template anytime you send a single email or a mass email campaign.
#3 Mobile Friendly Template (Trail Blazer Compatible)
This code will create a simple template that will automatically fit different screen sizes i.e. Smart Phones, Tablets, Desktops Etc. Click the image below to view the email in your browser. Change the size of the screen to see how it’s “responsive”. As with any email the code below will need to be tweaked to fit your needs and tested in all available email clients.

#4 Political or Nonprofit Advanced Template (Header, Body, Right Column, Links, Buttons and Footer)
*Click this image to preview the email in a browser.
Tip – Email Compatibility: This email will render different on different devices and browsers. If you decide to use this as a starting point please test extensively on different devices and browsers. Working with a seasoned web developer and/or possessing HTML/CSS knowledge is highly recommended for best results.
Refer to section #2 on how to copy and paste this code as a template in Trail Blazer. When tested this code renders well in Godaddy and Outlook but wasn’t great on mobile devices or in Gmail.
