Editable Rich Text Areas

These are areas where you can add Rich Text to your template. Rich Text supports text formatting, such as bold, italics and underlining; as well as different fonts, font sizes and coloured text. When editing an Editable Rich Text area, the Content Editor Toolbar opens, giving you greater control over the formatting of your rich text. It also supports HTML, allowing you to add images, video content and your own code.
