Why are my tests unable to send?

Before initiating a campaign the first test you run is sending a test email to check your email displays correctly and that links are working etc.

If your tests are receiving an error such as 'test not sent' this article will explain what could be causing this error.

Other

No Dynamic Content in your email? Have you duplicated HTML from one email and stuck into another? Are there embedded pictures in this replicated HTML? This could be another reason behind why.

We generally suggest using our copy email function. In the event that you have a third party's HTML we suggest making a zip folder and uploading the HTML to CommuniGator.

In the event that none of the above apply, please contact [email protected] who can run further investigations for you.
