G2K the WYSIWYG

You're probably familiar with other "What You See Is What You Get" text editors like this in software such as Microsoft Word. Our WYSIWYG (pronounced 'wizzy-wig') has a streamlined toolbar which allows you to add text and HTML code to various modules throughout Spark. This overview will help you G2K (get to know) the tools available.

Spark Location: Any Page, Event, Business listing, or Form which has a WYSIWYG tool bar.

Here are the different options/tools in the WYSIWYG.

Undo / Redo buttons

HTML button - this is commonly used for including embed codes from other sites, such as Google Maps or Google Calendar. It's also used for adding page-specific marketing/tracking pixels, or custom stylesheets. Clicking the button changes the text screen to black, which is where you can paste in your HTML.

 Text styling buttons - formatting, bold, italic, underline, and strikethrough. Learn more about the formatting tool (backwards P).

List buttons - bullets or numbers

Outdent / Indent buttons

Table button - This button is no longer included in the toolbar.
Here's how you can add a table using the HTML tool.

Link button - add a link or edit a link

Alignment button - left, center, right or fully justified

Rule button - adds a full-width rule line as a content separator

Font styling - size, color, background color

Paste buttons - to avoid issues caused by Word, we recommend using the Plain option and then formatting the text with the WYSIWYG
