Why is HTML getting stripped when NOT using the WYSIWYG editor?

vincentpolisi

Trying to send an HTML campaign out and in the Sendy Newsletter Preview, everything displays perfectly as you can see here http://cloud.vincentpolisi.com/sendy-20121219-134148.jpg

When I send either a test message or actual message to my TEST campaign, the HTML is gone as you can see here: http://cloud.vincentpolisi.com/sendy2-20121219-134230.jpg

This is a MailChimp template that I have downloaded and stripped all the proprietary MailChimp code from so it's straight HTML.

Why is this happening and what do I need to do to fix it?

Hi @vincentpolisi,

Is your CSS inline? Are your images full absolute paths?

Thanks.

Ben:

I realized after I posted that I should have included the source file. Here it is: http://cloud.vincentpolisi.com/Calendar.html

In this instance, there are no images, just CSS and text but yes, I only use absolute paths, never relative.

Works perfectly in the Sendy HTML editor and through MailChimp, just doesn't translate through when received. I've probably got something wrong somewhere but I don't know what it is.

Hi @vincentpolisi

I just checked your HTML code and realized the CSS weren't inline. Email clients only works with inline CSS.

I converted your HTML code using this site - http://inlinestyler.torchboxapps.com/styler/convert/

With all the CSS inline, I sent an email to myself and it's displaying correctly.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Ben
