ARTICLE_PROPERTY / itemValue

Variables

Campaign: 

does not exist

Engage:

Copy 
[%[VARIABLE.VAR]%]

Engage variables are created on message level. When using these variables in a template, they will not yet allow free-form values in there. If however you need to change the color in your email using free-form data, then use a repeater surrounding your entire message and treat the message as one big article. Creating an article will allow free-form data. The article_list would be called 'MAILSETTINGS'.
See the example 'Repeater in Repeater' below.

 

Content Blocks

Campaign: 

does not exist

Engage:

Content Blocks will be dynamically populated when the variable used in the Content Block is present in the message and has a value defined for it.

Copy
=>
[%[VARIABLE.VAR]%]

Content Blocks are a powerful tool. A Content Block is basically a snippet of HTML that can be used and re-used all over.
See this topic for more info on Content Blocks.

 

Campaign:

Copy 
<a href="~PROBE(0)~" />

Engage:

Copy 
<a href="[%LINK(0)%]" /> OR <a expr:href="LINK(0)"></a>
