The What you see is what you get (WYSIWYG) Editor is a simple tool that allows content creators to add or modify material that closely resembles the final result that will be published and visible to end-users or patrons.
WYSIWYG Basic Functions
Use the Basic editor to manage your content using standard editing tools including:
- Standard text formatting (Bold, Italic, Underline, Strikethrough, Quotations).
- Standard text layout (Indent, Alignment, Bullets, Numbering).
- Standard text editing tools (Copy, Cut, Paste).
- Text Links.
- Image, Audio and video uploading.
WYSIWYG Source Functions
When the Source button is selected, the WYSWYG transforms from a standard text input to an HTML code-based editor. This provides administrators with advanced control over the content that is entered, including the ability to:
- Write source code in HTML
- Paste Third-Party widget code.
- Switch to ‘Source’ mode to perform some advanced functionality including:
- Paste Embed code for content such as videos from YouTube.
- Apply additional formatting to text including changing font sizes and colors.
