Beware the Danger Zone

It is crucial that no text or images overlap the Danger zone section on the left-hand side. Pull-quotes and other text and media in this area may not format correctly once your post has been published.

Article Highlights

Article highlights allow you to make a few facts about your article stand out, in a bulleted list form. To begin, scroll down, until you see Article highlights, accompanied by a text box.

Make sure you use a bulleted-list structure for your article highlights. Also, if you use article highlights, remember not to include photos, pullquotes, etc. at the beginning of the piece.

Headings

To add a heading to your post, click the Toolbar Toggle on the panel above the text body. Upon clicking the Toolbar Toggle, another row of icons should be visible. You should see the Paragraph dropdown menu as the second option on this strip.
