How To Use The Rich Content Editor

Table of Contents

The Rich Content editor also referred to as a ‘WYSIWYG’ is a publishing tool that lets you view your text changes as you make them. You can see bold or italicised text, headings and tables as they will look when published.

District Engage’s editor allows for a range of rich text editing options for creating your landing page content.
