This will be one of my smallest posts. For some reason in Mautic, unlike most systems I’ve worked in, you can’t easily click and download a .csv ‘template’ of the fields that it uses. I was trying to create a test list in a spreadsheet and then import that test list (mainly for emailing of course) into Mautic and I…

How to Delete or Remove Completely an extra page in Inkscape
First, all credit where credit is due. Inkscape is awesome. Amazing vectored graphics program and with the new GUI update, it’s looking and feeling really nice.
