Newsletter LayoutsNewsletter

Use this block when

Use when the email needs to offer multiple article choices without turning into a plain text list.

Typically appears in

Inside recurring editorial, digest, and update emails.

Why it exists

To keep recurring content sends consistent without rebuilding structure every week.

Production role

Where this block earns its place

Treat the component as one production section inside a larger message system. It should support the send goal, survive handoff, and remain easy to review before compilation.

For repeatable editorial sends, product updates, and digest sections that need a stable rhythm.

Workflow context

Typically used in

These relationships help buyers understand the block as part of a send, not as an isolated catalogue item.

Weekly reporting digest

Keep stakeholders informed with scannable updates that can be repeated reliably.

Weekly digest

Support repeatable content sections and link-heavy editorial sends.

Implementation

Practical QA before handoff

Keep the checks short and action-oriented. The goal is to help teams decide whether this block is ready to enter a workflow.

Review every CTA href after the ESP rewrites or tracks links.
Confirm image assets are absolute HTTPS URLs before handoff.
Check the mobile preview before placing this block into a full workflow.
Review every content item, image alt text, and link destination before export.
Ensure each article card has a distinct heading because assistive technology users may navigate them individually.
Do not rely on image position alone to imply editorial priority across the four cards.
Gmail (Web + Mobile): Primary spacing, stack order, and CTA rendering hold up in Gmail web and mobile views.

Pairs well with
