Understanding Simple Text Blocks

Each page is comprised of one or more types of content: Hero, Content Block, Columns, Simple Text, and various feeds.

Simple Text blocks are most often used to highlight a call-to-action with a button, spotlight a quote, or create a standalone statement, value proposition, or idea.

With Simple Text blocks, the options include:

1. Description: Include a brief message/quote, etc. for your block.

   1. NOTE: When you click to add the description to a column, you will see a white control panel giving you some additional options for formatting your text. You can adjust the style of the text (Header 1, Header 2, etc.), add a bulleted or number listed, and more.

2. Move Simple Text block up or down on the page: hover your mouse over the 3 lines to the left of your block until an anchor appears. Then you can click and drag your block up or down on the page.

3. Background Image - Include an image that will appear behind the description of your block. You can either upload a new image or browse images already uploaded.

4. What's what in the Orange Control Panel: When you hover your mouse over the icons in the orange control panel, a little popup will appear that details what that icon does.

5. Set up a button: Add a button to your block to direct visitors to another page on your site or an external site.

6. Settings for Simple Text: on this block, you can also change the background shade and text color as well as some other advanced settings that require CSS (see image below).

7. Delete your block: If you no longer wish to use a block, you can simply click the trash icon to remove it.

8. Save Changes: Changes on a page don't save automatically, so be sure to save changes as you go.
