Inline editor

Format the text in your sections directly on the page, without leaving the builder.

Select any text in a section to open the inline editor. Its toolbar follows your selection, so you write and format content in place; what you see in the builder is what visitors get.

The toolbar

Control	What it does
Text level	Sets which of your Portal's ten text levels this text uses: H1 to H5, or p1 to p5.
List	Turns the selected lines into a list. Paragraph text only.
Horizontal line	Inserts a divider across the block. Paragraph text only.
B · I · U · S · </>	Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough and code.
Color	Sets the color of the selected text.
Font size	Nudges the selected text larger or smaller than its level's own size.
Add link	Turns the selection into a link.
Connect to DAM	Turns the selection into a route into the assets in your DAM.

Why a control might be missing

• List and Horizontal line sit immediately after the text level selector but only when you're editing paragraph text. They are absent on headings, so switch to a p level if you can't find them.

• Color, Font size and Add link need a selection. They stay greyed out until you select some text, because they act on a selection rather than the whole block.

Keyboard shortcuts

Shortcut	Does
Ctrl/Cmd + B	Bold
Ctrl/Cmd + I	Italic
Ctrl/Cmd + U	Underline
Ctrl/Cmd + S	Strikethrough
Ctrl/Cmd + /	Code
Ctrl/Cmd + K	Add link
Ctrl/Cmd + D	Connect to DAM

Blank lines

Blank lines you leave between blocks of text are kept when your Portal is published, so you can space out a long passage without adding empty sections.

Changes only reach visitors after you select Publish changes.
