Introduction to the editor

Inhoudsopgave

The editor: website editing

The editor is the part of Plate where you work directly in the website. So with the editor, you fill, change and delete content. That content can be in different forms on the website. Think of text, image and video, but also in forms such as a carousel, an image collage or a quote block.

If you are logged in as an admin and you are in the editor environment, you will see 3 color stripes appear on the website page when you hover your mouse over them:

  • Green: sections, the largest building block.
  • Blue: rows, which in turn you can divide into columns.
  • Red: elements, which you place within a column - the smallest building block.

More information on how to edit and add to that content can be found in the chapter The Website Building Blocks.

When you hover your mouse over a page (in editor mode), the colored blocks appear, allowing you to add or edit sections, rows and elements

Editor menu

If you are logged in as an admin, you will enter the editor environment. You will see a menu on the left side of the screen. In this menu you will find the following buttons:

  • Site settings
  • Post settings
  • Add page
  • Media library
  • Clipboard

You can find further information about these buttons via the table of contents to the right.
