Sure! If you want to provide a PDF file, Word doc, Excel Spreadsheet, or one of these other file types, we make it easy to upload your file to MailChimp and add a link in your campaign. Here's how:
- In the Design step of the Campaign Builder, click inside any red dotted area to bring up the Edit Your Content box.
- Create the text you want to link (for example "Read More" or "Follow this link") and then highlight that text.
- On the toolbar, choose the link icon.
- Click the Open File Manager button.
- Drag and drop files from your computer into the upload box, provide a URL for a file, or browse for a single file.
- Click Upload Selected Files when you're done choosing files.
- If you've uploaded multiple files, select Files on the left to view your gallery of files.
- Find the file you want to link to, hover over the thumbnail and click select.
- If you'd like the link to open in a new window, assign a CSS class, or create a title for your link, click show advanced link options to edit those settings.
- Click Insert and the link to your file is set!
Notes
- There's a 10MB limit for individual files in your MailChimp gallery. We recommend images be under 1MB if you're displaying them in your campaign to ensure subscribers can download and view them quickly.
- Hosted files are available via links in a campaign, and not as attachments because attachments can be problematic.
- The drag and drop interface uses HTML5, which isn't supported by all browsers. Safari in particular doesn't currently support all aspects of the HTML5 API. Instead, you'll need to browse your computer to select individual image files to upload to your MailChimp gallery.
