    The following is the existing template for New Post published email template.

    Hello {{NAME}},

    We have published a new blog article on our website : <b>{{POSTTITLE}}</b>
    {{POSTIMAGE}}

    You can view it from this link : {{POSTLINK}}

    How can I edit this template to add some few lines from the post too with a link Read More… As of now it’s just showing the title or subject. Help is appreciated. Thank you in advance

    Hiya,
    You can structure your template html to add and use the variable {{POSTDESCRIPTION}} before or after the {{POSTIMAGE}} this will give an excerpt from the begining of the post just as you want but the only thing I have found is that you can’t control the character count except length.

    Note: the {{POSTIMAGE}} picks up on your featured image in your post and has the post link embedded in it (i.e. onclick)

    Then just add your “Read more:” text just before your {{POSTLINK}} too, to give the “more” or “read more” or effect you want aswell as..

    Thank you for the detail explanation and as advised by you I have modified the template as below and it works fine. How can I control the length of the text?

    We have published a new blog article on our website : <b>{{POSTTITLE}}</b>
    {{POSTIMAGE}}

    {{POSTDESC}}

    As stated before this is something icegram has to look at as there is no current control option in place to manage the except length. Maybe it is something icegram the plugin author is planning to add later. We will have to wait an see.. 😊

    Thank you for giving the best answer. I appreciate you taking time to help people here.

    @sujithgnair
    You may remove the anchor tags and simply use the keywords below.
    {POSTLINK}} – use this to display full post link (clickable) in the email content
    {{POSTLINK-WITHTITLE}} – use this to display clickable post link with the post title.
