Tips for Text Editing

Keep Context in Mind

When editing text:

  • Maintain the same tone as the rest of the site
  • Keep text length similar (very long text might break the layout)
  • Proofread before saving

Formatting

The text editor shows plain text. If you need formatting:

  • Bold, italic, etc. - Ask the AI in chat
  • Links - Use the AI to add links
  • Special characters - Type them directly

Placeholder Text

If you see "Lorem ipsum" or placeholder text:

  • Replace it with your actual content
  • Make sure to update all placeholder text before publishing

What You Can Edit

Headings

All heading levels (H1, H2, H3, etc.) are editable:

  • Main titles
  • Section headings
  • Subheadings

Paragraphs

Any paragraph text:

  • Descriptions
  • About content
  • Feature explanations
  • Any body text

Button Text

Change what buttons say:

  • "Learn More" → "Get Started"
  • "Submit" → "Send Message"
  • "Buy Now" → "Add to Cart"

Menu items and links:

  • Rename menu items
  • Update navigation labels

Lists

Individual list items:

  • Feature lists
  • Bullet points
  • Numbered lists

What You Cannot Edit with the Edit Tool

Some text requires the AI chat:

  • Text that comes from data (like form submissions)
  • Dynamically generated text
  • Text inside special components

For these, describe your change in the chat instead.

Text Length Considerations

Keep in mind:

If your new text is significantly different in length, you might need to ask the AI to adjust the layout.
