In sending the weblog we have the options of draft, emailing the blog, or emailing the blog and product list and enabling ordering. At the risk of having confusing options, could we have an option to email the blog and enable ordering, with sending the product list?

And a question: If I put the url in the blog, as an active url, when it goes out as email the link is stripped. Is that a function of the end user (in my case Outlook), or is there a way to have the link survive emailing?

Thank you.

    Beth, I had thought about that, and decided it would make too many confusing options. You can send it as an email, and then open the market on the Your Account page (at the top of the "Market Manager" section.

    Most email readers do make urls "clickable", but you may have that turned off in Outlook. I've never used it, so I can't say where to look. In any event, that is controlled by the user's email reader. You could force it, but making it an actual HTML link (though even then, if the user has their email set to "plain text" only, they won't see it).

    Thanks. I agree it might be confusing. Having used the option with product
    listing once, I keep forgetting to turn the market on. We will be taking a
    summer break in a couple weeks anyway, and plan to really expand into a
    "real" market when we re-open in October. It was good to get familiar with
    the system on a small scale this winter/spring. Thank you for your
    patience.
