These are two simple mandatory fields for creating a spintag.

| List of Words | Line separated list of words or phrases that will be randomly selected while sending emails HTML and Custom Fields are supported |
How does it work?
Method 1:
While adding a broadcast or a drip, you see spintags dropdown button below the HTML version of the email content which contains all spintags that you have created so far. Upon selecting any spintag, it inserts a variable within the content area which is rendered in realtime while sending out emails.
Note: The spintags are placed inside {{ }} brackets e.g {{member}}. Whenever Cherub sees these double brackets, it will consider it as a spintag and will try to pick up a random value for it from the list of words/phrases.
Method 2:
Instead of creating spintags and then using them inside the broadcast content as described in the method above, you can simply add them in Square Brackets separately by the Vertical Slash e.g. [word1|word2|word3]. Look at the examples below
Dear [Client|Member|User|Customer], I [want|wish] to [advise you|let you know] that your [plan|package|subscription] is about to [expire|end|finish].
