My html email template was originally coded for internal organization communications. It was designed and built in SF Marketing Cloud and delivered via Outlook. As such it was created without a footer. We are now sending this externally and I have added a footer, including the href %%profile_center_url%%. When attempting to preview and test, I get the following message: "A profile center link is missing from this email. For template based email, please contact our customer service."

Have I missed the entry of a variable somewhere? Everything I am reading has stated I need this code and nothing more. Or is it possible I am using an incorrect send classification? I am stumped.

    Have you checked on the plain text version in your email that it already includes the part %%profile_center_url%%?

You can disable the Profile Link Check through:

Setup > Email Optional Features > Disable Profile Link Check checkbox.

Don't forget that:

Turning this feature off removes the requirement for the Profile Center link when validating and sending emails. Ensure your emails meet local regulatory requirements before disabling this feature.
