Sending Test Reminder Emails

Introduction

Editing the emails for events is easy, but sometimes you want to make sure the changes you made look nice in an email format. You can send a test email to yourself to see how the reminder emails will look when they are sent.

Sending a Test Email

First go to Manage Upcoming in your admin menu and click Update on the event you want to send the test email for. Just below the title for the reminder email, you can see the button to send a test email.

Make sure any changes you made are saved, and then click on the button.

Enter in your email in the box and click Send Test Emails.

This will send all the reminder emails turned on for that event: the 24 hour, 2 hour and thank you email.

Please note that the watch link does not work, if you want a watch link for the event you have to register for the event.

Note: If you want to see a test of a registration email, just register as a dummy registrant and use that as a test. This test only works for the reminder emails that are sent by the microsite: 24 hour, 2 hour, and the Thank You email.
