Using tags in html

[mailmail]

I have created an html version of my mail and would like to customize it with the MaxMail tags. eg: [firstname] Is this possible? It didn't seem to work when I tried.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Yes it works. Just write your tags inside the HTML code.

I tried that: This is what I did:
<span class="body-chardark"> Hi [Firstname], The moment we've all been waiting for is finally here. <span class="body-chardark1">

Am I doing something wrong?

 

[stanbusk]

It is correct and it should work. Is the MaxBulk 'Singly' option checked?

 

[mailmail]

Yes it was.

and it doesn't work? is Test mode unchecked? Format set to 'HTML only' or 'Text/HTML'? Do you have at least one entry in your list?

 

[mailmail]

Test mode was un-checked but I am using text/html mode. I have over 100 entries in my list.

I am such an idiot. I don't know what I was doing wrong but I just did a test and it now works. Thanks for stirring up the cob webs. Sorry about that.
