Your design is saved
Your changes went missing
- In a campaign, leave the editor with Done, which saves first. The back arrow next to it does not save.
- Click Save as you go. Autosave saves every minute while it is on. If the top bar says Autosave off, turn its switch on.
- Keep the email open in one tab, and let one person edit it at a time. An older tab left open can save over newer work.
- To bring back an earlier version of a campaign, click Revision history (the clock button), choose a version, then click Restore this revision.
Templates have no Revision history and no autosave, so click Save before you leave a template.
It stays on Loading the email builder
- Refresh the page.
- Sign out, then sign back in.
- Try Chrome, or another computer.
It will not save
You see Failed to save with the campaign name, Autosave failed or Error saving template.
- Check your internet connection.
- Click save again. Save already in progress... means the last save has not finished, so wait for it.
- Still failing? Refresh, check what was kept, and redo any missing changes.
Check it worked
After a refresh, your latest changes are still there.
If that does not fix it
Email support at agent@stampede.ai with:
- The campaign or template name.
- Your browser.
- A screenshot of any message.
Good to know
- Revision history lists each saved version, with who saved it and when.
- Building the email itself? See create and edit email templates.
- Only Admin, Moderator and Marketing can see Marketing.
