Learn what the Plain Text Editor is, when to use it, how to create a plain-text email template, and how it differs from other email editing options.

The Plain Text Editor is one of HighLevel's email editing options for creating simple, text-focused messages. It is useful when you want the email to feel more like a direct message and do not need the visual layouts available in the Design Editor.

The Plain Text Editor is useful when the message should focus primarily on written content rather than a designed layout.

Common examples include:

• Direct or conversational messages
• Welcome or follow-up emails
• Text-heavy communications
• Emails that do not require complex layouts or visual design

Create a new template and select the Plain Text Editor when you want a text-focused email instead of a drag-and-drop design or custom HTML.

1. Go to Marketing → Emails → Templates.
2. Click + New.
   
   
3. Choose to create a new email template from scratch.
4. When the editor options appear, select Plain Text.
   
   
   
5. Enter your email content.
6. Review the email before using it in a campaign or automation.
7. Click Save Template.
   

   
   

HighLevel provides different editing options depending on how you want to build the email.

Review the email before using the template in a live campaign. HighLevel provides Preview and Test Email tools for email campaigns and templates so you can check content, personalization, and inbox rendering before sending.
