How-to

Change the words on a page

The one thing this editor asks you to learn: click the words, type over them, publish.

1. Open the page in the editor

Sign in, open your site, and press Edit — or add ?edit=true to the end of any page’s address. The page looks the same, with a toolbar across the top.

2. Click the line you want to change

The cursor lands where you clicked. Type over the words, or select a few and use the bar that floats over them for bold, colour, a link.

3. Click away, or press Escape, when you are done

The change is saved to your draft as you type. Nothing is live yet.

4. Press Publish

The toolbar’s Publish button puts the draft live. Every publish is kept as a revision, so you can always go back.

Try it on your own site

Or on a throwaway one in the sandbox, with no account.
