The Content box on the article create/edit page is a rich text editor — it works much like a simplified word processor. This article covers every button on its toolbar.
Text formatting toolbar
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Style dropdown | Turns the current line into a heading (for section titles), a quote, or plain paragraph text |
| B / I / U / S | Bold, italic, underline, and strikethrough |
| Eraser icon | Clears formatting from the selected text |
| Font name dropdown | Changes the font family of selected text |
| Paint bucket / A icon | Text and background color |
| Bulleted / numbered list icons | Turns the current paragraph into a bulleted or numbered list |
| Paragraph icon | Text alignment and indentation |
| Table icon | Inserts a table — pick the number of rows and columns from the grid that appears |
| Link icon | Turns selected text into a hyperlink |
| Picture icon | Inserts an image (see below) |
| Horizontal-rule icon | Inserts a horizontal divider line |
| Fullscreen icon | Expands the editor to fill the browser window — useful for long articles |
| Code-view icon | Switches to raw HTML — for advanced users only; most people never need this |
Inserting images
- Click into the body where you want the image to appear.
- Click the picture icon in the toolbar.
- Choose an image file from your computer, or paste an image URL.
- The image uploads automatically and is inserted at your cursor.
Once inserted, click an image to reveal handles for resizing it, or a small toolbar for aligning it left, center, or right.
Images inserted directly into the content are meant for illustrations that belong inline with the text (screenshots, diagrams). For downloadable files like PDFs or slide decks, use the separate Attachments section instead — see "Uploading and Managing File Attachments".
