However, when we go back into the email to edit again, the “edit code” button is not working. If I refresh the browser after saving, I am able to get around this, but seems like there’s something else going on? Not seeing any errors in the log.

Hi, the edit code button works only after every second open 🙂 I think it will be fixed in 4.0.2. ---

Upgraded to 4.0.2 yesterday and now noticed that the code edit does only work once per session. Though, leaving the builder, doing something different and then coming back does not work as well. I tested it several times, to use the code edit in the builder I need to logout and login again. But it will only work once per session. Is there anything I could do about it? Thanks. Stephan ---

Yes, it works to reload the page while being in the builder. Then opening the builder again and the edit code button opens the modal as it should. Thanks for letting me know 😉
