Content: Insert Condition: True/False

 

Like a Simple Condition, a True/False Condition allows you to specify the text sent to recipients if the condition is true, but it also allows you to specify the text sent if the condition is false.

 

It also allows you to define the relationship between what is in the field and what you specify: is it less than or greater than the value you define? Does it contain certain letters and numbers? The ability to specify the relationship makes a True/False Condition more powerful and complex than a Simple Condition.

 

For more information about conditions in general, see Content: New Content: Inserting a Condition.

 

 

If This Field

Select the field you'd like ListManager to examine in order to insert conditional text. SeeContent: New Content: Inserting a Condition for more information about the fields available to you.

 

Is

Select the relationship between the value you specify, and what is in the recipient's membership record. The options available are:

 

= equal to

< less than

> greater than

<= less than or equal to

>= greater than or equal to

<> is not equal to

contains (contains the letters or numbers somewhere in the field

does not contain (does not contain the letters or numbers somewhere in the field

ends with (contains the letters or numbers at the end of the field

begins with (contains the letters or numbers at the beginning of the field.

 

This Value

The text, date or number that determines whether or not someone should receive the conditional text. Dates should be entered in one of the following formats:

 

YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS

MM/DD/YY

YYYY-MM-DD

 

Then Insert This Text

The text that should be inserted into the message if the recipient meets your condition. If the recipient does not, then no text will be included unless you specify one.

 

(optional) If Not, Then Insert This Text

The text that should be inserted into the message if the recipient does NOT meet your condition.
