I'm setting up a Book appointment button on an ACT e-marketing template which automatically subscribes a user to the campaign using Thrives One click Segue. The URL to be hyperlinked is http://blog.ojpippin.com.au/?post_type=tve_lead_1c_signup&p=3973&tl_name=[name]&tl_email=[email].
To make this URL compatible with ACT the website and Thrive leads the URL requires to be edited with the ACT field names so the updated URL would be
http://blog.ojpippin.com.au/?post_type=tve_lead_1c_signup&p=3973&tl_name=[[First Name]]&tl_email=[[Email Address]]
My issues is when I try to hyper link this URL ACT says Invalid URL, see screen shot
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi Rhonda,
Act! emarketing does not currently support merging Act field names into URLs in hyperlinks and buttons.
The only way to get a dynamic link in an email template, would be to add the URL as normal text, and let the receiving mail client turn this into a clickable link, like in this example below.
In Act emarketing editor
As received in Outlook
Adding this functionality for hyperlinks and buttons would make a good suggestion for our Share Your Ideas board.
