Editing Content
HTML Entry
HTML can be entered by either clicking on the white text area or selecting 'Edit Content' as shown below.
Component Properties
Authorized users have the ability to edit the properties of the HTML Component. They are able to adjust the availability of the functionality, as well as the look and feel of the component on the content page.
Component Properties are divided into 2 tabs:
- General Properties
Allows users to enable and disable general styling and formatting properties e.g. border width, border style, padding.
- Template Properties
These properties are set at the template level, and are therefore not usually editable from within a page. They dictate the overall use of a component on a page. For example, a component can be configured to allow the content within it to be edited but prevent the component itself being removed from the page.
