Correct link for first name in my messages

Could someone let me know if this is the correct format for addressing my subscribers. I think a couple of my messages went a bit haywire and I’ve lost the correct formatting.

Hi {{ ‘’ + subscriber.first_name.capitalize() if subscriber.first_name else ‘’ }},

Thanks! :grinning_face:

Hey Sue,

If you want subscriber’s first names to be on the emails you send you would use
{{ subscriber.first_name | capitalize }}

However if you have a subscriber who doesn’t have a name, you can use this to personalize with “friend” or something else: {{ subscriber.first_name | capitalize() or “friend” }}

You’d replace “friend” with the word you want to use instead.

How exactly were you trying to get the name to appear?

Hi Amanda,

Thanks so much. I’ll save these and go and edit my messages. Not quite sure how they got out of hand! I just wanted to have the subscriber’s first name with the first letter capitalized, ie Hi Amanda,

It’s great to know that I can replace “friend” with another word! :heart_eyes:
