How do I create a custom design/CSS and add it to my campaign?

The custom design feature is recommended for designers that know CSS and want to create fully customized designs for their campaigns. If you do not know CSS we recommend you learn about CSS before you use this feature. For help with CSS try W3Schools, A List Apart, or Think Vitamin. Also have a look at the Wildfire Promotion Builder CSS Documentation.

IMPORTANT: It is helpful to understand that a custom design is format specific and can be recycled for multiple campaigns. For example, if you create a custom design for a photo contest campaign format you can re-use the same custom design for any subsequent photo contests. However, you can't use the same custom design for a sweepstakes campaign format. You will have to create a new custom design that fits the sweepstakes campaign format.

Step 1: Go to the Custom Design Tab

Login to your Wildfire Promotion Builder account and click on the Manage Branding tab. Click on the Custom Design sub tab. Click on the Get Started link to create your first custom design.

Step 2: Create a New Custom Design

Input the name of your custom design and your CSS Stylesheet and click the Save button. For help with CSS try W3Schools, A List Apart, or Think Vitamin. Also have a look at the Wildfire Promotion Builder CSS Documentation.

Step 3: Edit Labels (Optional)

In the Custom Design sub tab click on the Labels tab. If necessary you can edit all the labels that are used in your campaign. If you delete one of the labels it won't show in your live campaign.

Step 4: Go to the Publish Tab of Your Campaign

Go to the Publish tab of your campaign. Select the Premium or White Label campaign option. Click on the Design links. Choose the Custom Design option and in the drop-down menu choose the custom design you created and click the Save Design button. To provide you with maximum flexibility, you can apply your CSS stylesheet to all campaign channels or just a subset of channels. Your design is now added to the campaign and ready for prime-time.
