Email footers not automatically updated

Hi, 

My team is trying to update our email footers to say 2022. We were under the impression any email already created should automatically update with change. We are not seeing that happen. However, any new email is updated to say 2022.

 

Is this the correct div coding or do we need something else? 

<div> © 2022 National Retail Federation &nbsp; <a style="text-decoration:none;color:${Footer-LinkColor}" href="mailto:contact@nrf.com">Contact</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a style="text-decoration:none;color:${Footer-LinkColor}" href="https://nrf.com/privacy-policy">Privacy Policy</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a style="text-decoration:none;color:${Footer-LinkColor}" href="nrf.com/terms-and-conditions-nrfcom">Terms &amp; Conditions</a></div>
</div>

 

Thank you,

Alexa

Hi Alexa,

I'd use a token for the year in your template though, so you just have to change in one place at the start of the year - at top level all marketing programs folder - and it will trickle all the way through your programs that sit within that folder, old & new (that are made with the template with the token). You can use this token on your landing pages too and makes it one quick change each year!

@hermana you should be using this method if you want it to be automatic each year:

      Hi, 

       

      Thank you so much! This is very helpful. Do I use the date token? Are you able to share the token you used? 

      Once I create the token, do I drop it into the design studio template?

       

      Thank you,

      You can just use a text token. And yes then you'd put the token value in your email template footers.
