What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Experience two interactive evenings of art and song in a dazzling journey of the senses on December 15th and 16th at National Sawdust. You will be guided through 21c Liederabend Op. Senses with a handmade book for each audience member from artist Kathryn Hamilton with special artifacts that correspond with each piece, expanding your experience of the work beyond the usual sight and sound.

Curated and directed by Paola Prestini and Beth Morrison, the performances features spectacular works by Juhi Bansal, Gabriela Frank, Molly Joyce, Mary Kouyoumdjian, Missy Mazzoli, Angélica Negrón, Emma O’Halloran, Paola Prestini, Ellen Reid, Sarah Kirkland Snider, and Du Yun.
