Hope everyone had a nice Christmas.
I try to adjust the HTML of a new mail, but the option is gone. I’m on 2.4.0 and understand the builder should somehow show the html code. But mine still looks like the one before. (Slot types, Customize Slot and Customize Section).
Any ideas?

You need to select “code mode” as theme when building your email. Then you click on “builder” and there you can edit in HTML.
Please see this video:

@olafdammann just keep in mind that (as the video notes) – if you switch to code mode you can’t go back to using the builder

THANKS 🙂
