WYSIWYG Editor Field

The WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) Editor is the rich-text input — bold, italic, lists, links, images, tables, all controlled from a toolbar. Use it anywhere users need to compose formatted content: email body, page content, article HTML.

Conditional options

  • Editor Features (Required) — pick which toolbar features to expose. The full feature list is long; common choices are Basic (bold, italic, lists, links), Standard (adds images, tables, colours), and Full (adds source code view and advanced media). Restricting features keeps editing focused and prevents users pasting unwanted styles.

What gets stored

HTML — the editor outputs standard tags. The platform renders that HTML wherever the field is displayed (subject to sanitisation rules on the public docs/site).

Reusing email designs

For email body fields specifically, consider pairing the WYSIWYG with an E-mail Design chosen via a related field — the design supplies the wrapper layout (header, footer, colours), and the WYSIWYG fills in the content area.
