What are Synced Blocks?

Synced Blocks allow you to reuse the same content across multiple designs while keeping it consistent. Instead of updating the same section in every template individually, you can update the Synced Block once, and those changes become available wherever that block is used.

This is particularly useful for content that appears in many templates and should remain consistent over time.

When Should You Use Synced Blocks?

Synced Blocks are a great choice when the same content is used across multiple templates and needs to remain consistent.

Examples include:

  • Company branding

  • Logos

  • Headers

  • Footers

  • Contact information

  • Legal content

  • Promotional banners

  • Social media sections

Availability

Synced Blocks are available exclusively on the Optimize plan.

Common Use Cases

Company Branding

Maintain consistent branding across all your templates by using Synced Blocks for elements such as your company logo, brand colors, or header sections.

Email Footers

Create a reusable footer containing your company's contact information, address, copyright notice, or social media links. When these details change, you only need to update them once.

Legal Disclaimers

Keep legal notices, privacy statements, or compliance information consistent across every email.

Promotional Banners

Use Synced Blocks for seasonal campaigns, promotional offers, or announcement banners that appear in multiple templates.

Contact Information

If your support email, phone number, or office address changes, updating a single Synced Block ensures the latest information is used across all applicable designs.

Social Media Links

Maintain a single version of your social media section so any changes are reflected consistently.
