Website Text Editor Overview

Throughout the website, you will notice the same text editor on each page. Below we have a description of each button in the text editor. 

Just like when you're creating a document in Microsoft word or Pages, you can bold, italicize, underline and strike through words, and paragraphs.

Left, centre and right align your text.

Utilizing advanced font settings can be a great way to break up the content on a page to make it easy to read. You can choose from the following options: Heading 1, Heading 2, Subheading 1, Subheading 2, Subheading 3, Body 1 and Body 2.

Below is an example of what the different headings would look like.

If you have copied text from somewhere else and it is not showing up properly on your site, there may be some hidden formatting that is also being brought in depending on where you copied the text from. To clear the unwanted formatting, click on the "Paste as text" button, paste your text and click save. You can then go back to edit the formatting the way you want. If your text is still not displaying properly, click here to see more ways to fix unwanted formatting from copying and pasting text. 

If you'd like to add text that stands out on a page, you can select the "Block Quote" option as an alternative to bold/italicize/underline. Below is an example of how this would be displayed. 

You can choose circle bullet points or a numbered list.

To start a line of text further in from the outside margin click the indent button. If you'd like the text to go back out to the outside margin, click the outdent button.

Simple undo and redo functions.

For instructions on how to create hyperlinks click here. You can also unlink text by clicking the "Remove link" button. Below is an example of what a hyperlink looks like on a page.

Note: How a link looks will vary based on your website's theme and colors.

Use these buttons if you would like to include a photo or video in the "Body" or text section of the page.

If you have a form, calendar or other pieces of code you would like to embed on your website, you would click the "Source Code" button.
