Tips for Embedding Gobi Stories

  • Image Size: Adjust the width and height in the embed code to fit your email design. For example, you might want larger images for more visual impact.
  • Link Target: Ensure the target="_blank" attribute is included so that the story opens in a new tab, preventing users from navigating away from their email.
  • Alt Text: Customize the alt attribute to provide descriptive text for the image. This is useful for accessibility and if the image fails to load.

Troubleshooting

  • Broken Links: Double-check the href attribute to ensure the URL is correct.
  • Image Not Displaying: Verify the src attribute of the image link to ensure the URL is correct and the image is accessible.
  • Email Layout Issues: Ensure that the embed code is placed within a suitable section and does not conflict with other content.
