Text Editor Widget


Use text tools to change the look of a Text or Title widget. Change the font, color, alignment and style of text using a simple editing interface. This lets you quickly make style changes to specific text on your site to highlight key points and organize information.


To add text to your site, in the left panel, click Widgets, and then click and drag the Text widget into your site and start typing.


Text Editor


To edit text on your site:


  1. Click the text you want to edit to open editing mode.
  2. Select the text you want to edit by clicking and dragging over the text.
  3. Use the inline editing options in the bar above the text to edit text styles, sizes, fonts, alignment, or add links.

Styling Text


You can change the style of text by highlighting it and clicking the Bold, Italicize or Underline icon. You can select more styling options by clicking the three dots to the right of the Underline icon.



Text Formatting


The following options allow you to change the formatting of text by adding a header or paragraph.


Heading 1 should be used for main page headings/titles. Headings 2 and 3 can be used for sub-headings on pages with a lot of content. These 'Headings' format your text as well as adding important tags into the code that tell search engines more about the content on your website. 'Paragraph' is the main body font style for your website text.


You can also change the colour, font type and size of text, however this should be used in one-off scenarios and not as a regular way to style website text.


Please note: As your website is built with pre-set styles based on your branding and website style, it is not recommended that font type, size or colours are changed unless it is for a custom page or block of content.

If you would like to change your font throughout the site, or the colours of headings, please contact Webmanager@wolterskluwer.com and we will assist you.
