For some posts, you want to customize and include more text for your followers.
That's why we offer our text DM template. The text DM template accepts up to 700 characters of text. Which will allow for more personalization to the specific link being sent.

A few considerations before modifying a post to use the text DM template.
The text DM template has no way to add multiple buttons, which means 'save to email' and 'shop the recipe' along with any custom buttons, are not supported.
Additionally, we can track sends and opens for this template type, but we do not have the ability to track clicks.
