What’s a Rich Text element?

FGHFG

DDFGHDFGH

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.

Absolutely lovely! I adore Mission. A great open space tucked in a side street of the short north... Mission, you have the heart of so many locals! Keep it roastin. - Yelp Review

One Line Coffee is one of a kind. The way they make and serve their coffee is truly an art. Each cup is made when you order, that way you are always guaranteed fresh hand-poured coffee. One Line cares about sourcing locally and sustainability. Therefore their process is easy, “to farmer, to roaster, to you.” Check out One Line if you’re looking for a locally sourced cup of joe.

Columbus has a lot of amazing coffee shops. One line is hands down my favorite. From their perfectly crafted cappuccinos to delicious pour overs, I know that whatever I get at this shop will be good. - Yelp Review

They have breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and vegan-friendly food too. Make sure to check out the menu before going - it’s a lot to digest (figuratively and literally)! When stopping here you won’t leave hungry. They are open from 9 am to midnight - because coffee is good at all hours.

This place is the absolute best coffee shop in Columbus. No BS or judgmental coffee snob baristas, just the most friendly staff and delicious coffee at fair prices. The menu has everything you could ever wish for. Plenty of teas and pastries as well. The breakfast sandwich is to die for. The owners promote local art all over the shop, too. I love it here! - Yelp Review

If you are a lover of macarons or have a gluten intolerance - their bakery items are a must try. Although Pistacia Vera is better known for their bakery items, their coffee is nothing to be ashamed of. Pistacia Vera has your usual hot coffee and espresso, but they have some unique options too. So check out the ordering online menu to decide what kind of beverage you fancy.  

Any time I'm near a Pistacia Vera (usually the one at North Market) I have to stop by and indulge. The chocolate bombe is AMAZING! The macarons are sweet and chewy and delightful. I've yet to try anything that I disliked. - Yelp Review

Poindexter Coffee

750 N High St. (Inside the Graduate Hotel) | graduatehotels.com

While Poindexter Coffee is located in a hotel, it isn't a tourist trap. It is a great place to meet up with friends or grab a cup of coffee on your way to work or class. Since this coffee house is in the Graduate Hotel, it is a gathering spot for college students - so be careful if you aren't a Buckeye fan! Despite the team you cheer for make sure to stop by and experience the delicious drinks and relaxing atmosphere.

Confused by the other reviews, this place is a great addition to the neighborhood. Great seating inside and you can also hang out in the comfy couches within the hotel lobby. Great drinks and unique ambiance! - Yelp Review

Holy cow, this place was amazing. I had a slice of Red Velvet Cake that was wonderful... My cake and coffee were only $5, so this is a really nice place to come for a quick sugar rush for not a lot of money. - Yelp Review
