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.

This tranquil woodland-edge garden reflects the voices of people living with lung conditions who seek a calm, supportive ‘breathing space’ in which to recover and reconnect with nature.Accessible paths, graded steps and seated rest points, lead to the heart of the garden. Here, two structural pine trees, known for their natural antioxidant and immune-boosting qualities, anchor a ‘floating’ platform. With its cantilevered canopy, this is a large, sheltered space for breath-supporting therapies such as yoga and tai chi. Running water and a still pond introduce soothing sounds and a sense of reflective calm.A restrained planting palette of green and white is lifted by highlights of purple and orange, with pockets of low-allergen plants.
