Text Block

The Text Block Page Element will be the most used Page Element in the UW Theme for most sites.  It provides a simple word processor with minimal features that will allow you to add most written content to your site.  In addition to written text, Text Blocks allow you to embed third-party applications with embed code that you can use in your site.

Options available in Text Blocks include:

Bold text  Italicized Text  Strikethrough  Adding a link

  • Unordered lists
  • Test
  1. Ordered lists
  2. Test

Blockquotes

Horizontal lines


Left-aligned text

Center-aligned text

Right-aligned text

You can embed third-party content provided they provide embed code.  Below, you will see a YouTube video embedded in a Text Block.  We offer the Embed Content Page Element for YouTube videos, but you might choose to embed a video in a Text Block if you want to manipulate the size of the video or where it displays on your page.
