Email modules also duplicating content

We created our own email template and within that some modules. When using a module, or duplicating a block, and then entering content for that specific element, this then changes the content for all blocks that originate from that module. Little confusing, but essentially as you type in your unique content for that module, you can watch as this same content appears in the same element for other modules of the same type.

Hey Jessie,

This is likely due to variables within modules being set to Global rather than Local.

See here for more detail: Email Template Syntax - Marketo Docs - Product Documentation

Easy fix, just requires mktomodulescope="true" to be added to the variable settings, e.g.:

<meta class="mktoString" id="btn-copy" mktomodulescope="true" mktoname="Button Text" default="Click Me →" />
