How to use a fallback value in personalization tag?

edited February 2018 in Questions

If a user does not have his name in the database, then sending a campaign with Dear [firstname,fallback=], will appear as Dear , in the sent email. Is there a way to OR the personalization to avoid this situation? For example if the "firstname" tag is missing, switch to just Hello, rather than Dear [firstname,fallback=],.

  • Hi,

    Populate the fallback= with a value. For example [Name,fallback=subscriber].

    So even if the subscriber does not have a name, the name tag will be converted to:

     Dear subscriber,
    

    Instead of:

     Dear ,
    

    Thanks.

    Best regards,
    Ben
