Page Editor - Enhance the Pages of your Issues

If you choose to embed selectable clippings (great for coupons, mail order forms, advertiser cutouts), you can activate a right side widget for end users to save/view and manage their clippings.

First you need to make sure you have created and embedded clippings within the pages of your digital edition.

To activate the clipping side bar first click edit title from the manage titles/issues view:

Then click Widgets>Clipping Side Bar>select the activate the clipping widget

You'll then have to fill out the required fields.  (See screenshots below for reference)

  1. Custom Headline (The header for your clipping side bar)
  2. Default Text/HTML (will show if there are no clippings added but will disappear as soon as clippings are added to the side bar)
  3. Allow customers to send you their basket checkbox (OPTIONAL):
    • Select this option if you want to allow end users to email their clippings/coupons/orders to an email address
    • Define the text that appears on the button users will click if they want to email their clippings (Orders: Custom Button)
    • Enter an email address to which the clippings will be emailed to
    • Once users click on the button to send their clippings they will need to fill out some information and click "send"
