Email Signature Customization — Styling, Layout, Logo & Fields

Consolidated request for a more flexible signature builder. Merged from multiple posts covering styling, layout, logo handling, field content, and preview. Specific asks:

Typography & styling

  • Per-line / per-field typography — font color, size, bold, and italic for each individual line and data field

  • Adjustable padding/spacing (top of the signature, and before/after lines)

  • Team Signature Data styling — per-field bold, color, and size (e.g. company name bold in brand color, user name slightly larger than body text)

Layout & arrangement

  • Reorder/reposition signature components (custom arrangement)

  • Add line breaks in the field layout without hand-editing HTML

  • Keep the social/contact block inline on an existing line instead of forcing a new line

  • Multi-line company address (e.g. City / State / Zip on its own line)

Logo & images

  • Place the logo above or below the signature, not just left or right

  • Make the logo clickable with a URL

  • Use different logo images for Replies/Forwards vs New Messages

Fields & content

  • Static/global text fields — add fixed text anywhere (e.g. "Kind regards" at the top), beyond repurposing the Company Address field

  • Control display-name format (First Last vs Last First pulled from M365)

  • Communication/social icons — phone, mobile, email, web — with custom-icon support and a website option

  • Selective hyperlinking — apply links to only the email/website, not phone numbers

Preview

  • Edit the sample/preview data used in the signature preview

    I would like to be able to

    • Preview users’ signatures, not just the sample data

    • Preview signature with sample data to change to custom sample data

    • The ability to change the positions of signature components

    • Social media links - possible to change icons or use custom icons, and include the company website as another option

    • The ability to add a URL link to the logo image. At present, a URL link can only be added to the banner

    • The ability to add custom text to other areas of the signature, and not just append to the bottom or in the mandatory disclaimer. Some users have previously added kind regards to the beginning of their signatures for all users

    • The ability to change font properties - colour, size, and style to all elements in the signature

    • The ability to apply links to only the email address and website only and not include the phone numbers. I don’t want to have work phone numbers and mobile numbers to be underlined with a link applied

    • The ability to add line breaks in the field layout instead of using HTML to add a <br>

      ability to change font formatting for data fields

    • The ability to add image placement for the logo to be placed under data fields instead of left or right

      Update: previewing a real user's signature (not just the generic sample data) shipped in INKY 1.8.8. The remaining styling, layout, logo, and field items in this thread are still tracked on this post.

    Signature Customization

    Signature styling and customization improvements:

    • Add the ability to change logo images for Replies and Forwards (different from New Messages)

    • Add the ability to adjust padding/space at the top of the signature

    • Per-line typography control: change font color, bold, italicize, and font size for each individual line/field

    • Static text fields — ability to add a field with globally-set static content (beyond repurposing Company Address)

    • Team Signature Data improvements — per-field bold, color, and font size (e.g. company name bold and in brand color, user name slightly larger than body text)

    Feature parity with signature competitors

    I would like to see feature parity with other competitors like exclaimer. This would allow us to extract the full value from Inky and remove another vendor from our stack.

    -Signature designer (with layout flexibility)
    -Scheduled signature

    -Banner campaigns

    -Ability for end users to select signature to be used

    signatures custom arrangement

    When using a custom arrangement for the signature layout it would be good to be able to add a free text block to a line.
    e.g. if i wanted the have “Website: “ followed by the company link/url

    It would also be good if I add the social media block onto an existing line that i didn’t add a return before.
    e.g. if i put the company link followed by the social media block, it puts the socal block on a new line even tho i have it on the same line

    Lastly, I have a client that wants their logo on top and another wants it under the signature block. inky only has options for left or right.

    ability to change name format in signature

    currently inky pulls the display name from MS, which some clients have set as last name first, which then carries over to inky but clients want first name last name on their signature.

    I would also like to see an additional line for “free text” field where users can put in info like their own upcoming out-of-office time. We already use the user-specific licenses field for their degrees, certifications, licenses, etc. and the users have no other place to list this. We use the Footer field for holidays or office closures, but need somewhere where users can list their own upcoming OOO dates.
