# Email Templates

{% embed url="<https://rechatq.wistia.com/medias/wgyxhf0zsc>" %}

#### **1. Automatic Row & Column Structure**

When designing email templates, structure matters. Every element must follow a specific layout to render properly across email providers.

Now, the plugin handles that for you.

* Adding an element (like an image or text) will **automatically place it inside a column and row**
* No need to manually build the structure first
* Ensures your designs are **email-compliant by default**

{% hint style="info" %}
Email formatting is strict. This removes guesswork and prevents broken layouts when exporting to Rechat.
{% endhint %}

#### **2. Faster Template Creation with Smart Elements**

You can now build templates by simply selecting elements like:

* Image
* Text
* Button
* Divider

The plugin will:

* Automatically generate the correct layout structure
* Place elements exactly where they need to go
* Maintain compatibility with email rendering standards

#### **3. Easier Multi-Column Layouts**

Need side-by-side content (like price + details or agent info)?

* Add a new row
* Adjust the number of columns
* Drop content directly into each column

This makes it easy to create:

* Property detail sections
* Agent info blocks
* Multi-column layouts

#### **4. Built-In Email Design Best Practices**

The plugin is designed specifically for email constraints:

* Encourages simple, clean layouts
* Prevents unsupported structures
* Keeps templates optimized for deliverability and rendering

### **What This Means for You**

With these enhancements, you can:

* Design email templates directly in Figma with confidence
* Reduce back-and-forth fixing layout issues
* Create templates faster for your agents
* Ensure everything works seamlessly once imported into Rechat

{% hint style="info" %}
If you’re building email templates, **always think in rows and columns,** even if you don’t have to manually create them anymore. It’ll help you design more intentionally and avoid layout surprises.
