Scenario 

Your signature is required to feature the Trust Pilot widget to allow recipients to leave a review for any services you offer.

Trust pilot has multiple options for the widget and generates HTML code that you can import into some mail clients.

Resolution

NOTE: For example purposes only - this code has been edited for this scenario only.

To add Trust Pilot within Exclaimer Cloud Signatures:

  1. To start with, open up the code into a plain text editor such as Notepad, Atom, Notepad ++ or any text document to make it easier to read. 
    <p style="font-family: Arial, Arial Black, Tahoma, Trebuchet MS, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #aaa; text-decoration: none;">
    <a href="https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/exclaimer.com?utm_medium=Trustbox&utm_source=EmailSignature2" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration:none;text-underline: none;">
    <img src="https://emailsignature.trustpilot.com/signature/en-GB/2/5c994862b22aa20001eb7ee9/text.png" border="0" height="16" style="max-height: 16px;border: none;" alt="Trustpilot rating">

    <img src="https://emailsignature.trustpilot.com/signature/en-GB/2/5c994862b22aa20001eb7ee9/stars.png" border="0" width="160" style="max-width: 160px; width: 100%;border: none;" alt="Trustpilot Stars"></a>
    <br>
    <a href="https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/exclaimer.com?utm_medium=Trustbox&utm_source=EmailSignature2" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration:none;text-underline: none;">
    <img src="https://emailsignature.trustpilot.com/brand/s/2/logo.png" border="0" width="79" style="max-width: 79px; width: 100%;border: none;" alt="Trustpilot Logo"></a></p>

    Extract the image URL and Hyperlink from the code.

    Look out for <img src= and <a href= in the code to find the relevant objects. 

    In this example, we have extracted the following hyperlinks and image URLs:

    Hyperlinks
