Text - Mura Docs v7.0

Text

You can add a text object very easily to a page or section of your site.

Follow the steps below to apply a Text display object.

  1. From the front-end public view of your site, hover over the pencil icon on the front-end toolbar and select Inline Edit.
  2. The inline edit panel should appear on the right-hand portion of your browser.
  3. Select the Text display object, and then drag it to your desired area, such as the right-hand column. As you drag the display object, drop zone target areas will highlight with either a red dotted box or red dotted line.

     
  4. When you release the mouse button, the display object should appear on your screen, and the inline edit panel should display a form with configuration options.
    • Select Content Source
      There are two options for "Content Source": Custom, and Bound Attribute.
      • Custom
        • Select "Custom" and click "Edit"
        • You should now see an "Edit Text" window which contains a simplified HTML editor toolbar for basic formatting of your text. Simply enter your text, style it, and click "Update" to save.
      • Bound Attribute
        • Selecting "Bound Attribute" will reveal an additional menu option titled "Select Bound Attribute." Options include: Navigation Title, Title, Credits, Summary, and any custom fields created through Mura's Class Extension module.
        • When you select an attribute, the value will simply display on the layout wherever you've applied the display object.
    • Label
      You may optionally enter text for a label which would appear above the text.
    • Alignment
      You may select an "Alignment" from one of the options listed below:
      • Left
        • Selecting the "Left" option will reveal the "Offset" and "Width" menus. Simply select your desired Offset and Width.
      • Right
        • Selecting the "Right" option will reveal the "Width" menu. Simply select your desired Width.
    • Custom CSS Classes
      Enter the name of the custom CSS class.
    • Select the Delete button to remove the Text display object from the layout.
  5. When you're done making edits, select your desired publishing option to save your changes.
