The editor is the place where you create, edit and design your website content.
There are many ways to design and customize your website. You can add many different elements and even entire layout sections and structure the content using content sections. You can also insert your own logo and define a color scheme and font formats.
Here we give you an overview of the most important functions of the editor:
Elemente hinzufügen
There are many different elements and ready-made layouts that you can use to design your website. Choose from text, images, buttons, dividers, galleries and much more that you can add in the editor.
- Click on the + symbol on the left-hand side of the editor to open the overview of elements
- Select one of the categories
- Drag and drop the desired element to the desired position in a content section.
Elemente bearbeiten, kopieren und löschen
- If you move the mouse over the element, three symbols appear at the bottom of the element:
- Gear icon: opens the settings for an element. Here you can (depending on the element) make important settings, set links, customize the appearance and define spacing.
- Paper symbol: copies the element and adds it to the list of copied elements. From there, you can insert the element in other places in your project.
- x symbol: Deletes the element. If you confirm the deletion with ‘Yes’, it is irrevocably deleted.
Move elements
- If you drag the blue bar at the top of the element with the mouse, you can move it (drag-and-drop)
