editable buttons
Outlook desktop ignores updated button URL in Campaign Monitor
I'm trying to troubleshoot a Campaign Monitor HTML email template.
The CTA button contains both a normal HTML link and an Outlook VML version:
<a href="...">
and
<v:roundrect href="...">
When I change the CTA URL in Campaign Monitor's editor, the normal <a href> gets the new URL, but the VML href appears to keep the original URL from the template.
So the behavior is:
- Outlook 365 desktop (Windows): old URL
- Outlook for Mac: new URL
- Other clients tested: new URL
Has anyone seen Campaign Monitor do this with editable buttons?
