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.

The garden exemplifies the joy and associated health and wellbeing benefits of garden visiting that have been at the heart of the National Garden Scheme since 1927. 

With a woodland edge theme, the garden’s drift of gentle underplanting, made up of principally drought tolerant woodland plants laid out through an open hazel coppice, is designed to give a sense of calm and a connection to nature. A selection of the plants are donated by National Garden Scheme garden owners from their gardens showing the spirit of generosity between the charity and its supporters. 

A garden inspired by

“The garden presented the charity in a wonderfully accessible manner, but also embodied what have always been the watchwords for our gardens: quality, interest and character. Through the week of the show I watched with growing pride as a host of people who volunteer or who open their gardens for the National Garden Scheme saw our garden as a celebration and embodiment of the charity they love.” - George Plumptre, CEO of National Garden Scheme
