Rich Content Editor

Features include:

  • Auto-save feature that will automatically save new content for up to one hour, even if the user leaves the page or there is a loss of internet connectivity

    Note: the saved content will be visible upon returning to the page for only one hour and only if the same browser is used.

    We recommend that you continue to regularly save your page content

    Note: Certain icons, such as the Embed or MS Teams Meetings feature, will not be immediately visible, but rather accessed by clicking on the 3 dots found on the right-hand side of the toolbar, as pictured in the screen shot below

Preview inline

  • This option displays the preview directly in the Rich Content Editor window once the file is clicked.
  • If the Expand preview by Default option is also selected, the file is automatically expanded in the page and the user does not need to click the file to view it. Instead, the user can choose the preview by clicking the Minimize Preview link that displays along with the image.
