Using Content Elements
Content elements are an easy and intuitive way to create content in your articles. Having separate elements inside your article allows you to easily organize and edit the content on your site.
Types of elements
Text Element
This adds a text block for website copy that looks a lot like word processing software. The text area tools will allow you to highlight the text you have typed and make it bold, italic, and underlined. You can also add a headline, add a link, or an image.
Headline
h1 headlines are used as the main title of your page. Always use the h1 for your first title and let it be the descriptive factor of your page. There is technically only supposed to be one h1 on each page.
h2 through h6 are used as sub-headlines. These are usually smaller in size than the h1 and are used to describe sub-headings for paragraphs on the page.
HTML
Allows you to add custom HTML code to your website. You can copy and paste into the box or write your own code. When you need HTML, the HTML element can be easier to use than managing the code in the Text editor.
List
The List element generates a bulleted or numbered list without knowing any HTML. Use this element to quickly re-arrange and add new items to your lists.
Table
The table element generates an HTML table without needing to know any HTML code. You can click the appropriate plus symbol plus to create new table rows and columns.
Hyperlink
The hyperlink element creates a link to a page on your website or use it to create a link to another website. This element can be an easy way to add many links to a page without having to create them all in the text editor.
Top Link
The Top link element generates a link for jumping to the top of the page. This is widely used on many websites with Frequently Asked Questions.
Image
The Image element generates a stand-alone image. Choose your image by selecting the source file. You can change the size of your image and wrap text around it.
Gallery
The gallery element generates a photo gallery consisting of many images. Choose the ones you want to display in your gallery by selecting the files. There are many options for your gallery including changing the sizes of your images, adding margins and choosing how many images show up in a row. You can also change the order your images appear in the gallery.
Download
The Download element generates a link to one download file. This can be a PDF, Word Document, Zip file, etc. This element is an easy way to add a download to your website without having to worry about coding in the links to the file.
Downloads (Multiple Download Files)
The Downloads element works a lot like the Download element except you can add more than one file at a time. This is a great way to add a whole folder of files to your website.
