Images within Text

Images can be set within the Page Content to align to the left or to the right side of the text allowing the text to wrap around the image and have appropriate spacing around the image.

  • Simply insert your image at the beginning of the page or the beginning of the paragraph you want your image to line up with.
  • Click on the image so it is highlighted.
  • In the Styles drop down menu choose leftImage or rightImage.
  • Submit your changes to preview your content.

Example:

Boy sitting in the sun using his laptop.Importunus opto quis bis suscipit olim vereor lucidus sudo humo mara. Secundum minim conventio augue vulputate sagaciter vulpes eum iriure dolore blandit ut. Ut te singularis nulla indoles loquor ad pala utrum capio at. Vel at jugis sed.

Ut eros adsum verto nisl eum hendrerit vereor singularis autem autem persto. Nostrud loquor vel zelus feugait venio sudo. Pecus humo bene erat zelus hendrerit. Damnum illum vereor secundum commodo distineo odio.

Metuo conventio valde at sino te. Venio commoveo jus et ullamcorper tincidunt ea ut. Abbas paratus duis pagus eros. Ut eros adsum verto nisl eum hendrerit vereor singularis autem autem persto. Nostrud loquor vel zelus feugait venio sudo. Pecus humo bene erat zelus hendrerit. Damnum illum vereor secundum commodo distineo odio. Ut eros adsum verto nisl eum hendrerit vereor singularis autem autem persto. Nostrud loquor vel zelus feugait venio sudo. Pecus humo bene erat zelus hendrerit. Damnum illum vereor secundum commodo distineo odio.


Images with Captions

Left or right aligned images can also have a caption that sits under the image and has a slightly different style from regular paragraph text. This process is very similar to aligning the image.

  • Write a paragraph directly underneath your image.
  • Select the paragraph so it is highlighted.
  • In the Styles drop down menu choose leftCaption or rightCaption.
  • In order to get your caption to line up with the image they must be the same width. Click the HTML icon to edit the source code.
  • Find the paragraph that is going to become your caption. It should look something like:
    <p class="leftCaption">Here is my caption text.</p>
  • If your image is 250px wide then your caption should be the same. Add the following text to your paragraph:
    <p class="leftCaption" style="width: 250px;">Here is my caption text.</p>

If you are uncomfortable editing HTML, it is never to late to learn »

Example:

Boy sitting in the sun using his laptop.

Here is my caption that is 200px wide to match my image. It could wrap to multiple lines.

Importunus opto quis bis suscipit olim vereor lucidus sudo humo mara. Secundum minim conventio augue vulputate sagaciter vulpes eum iriure dolore blandit ut. Ut te singularis nulla indoles loquor ad pala utrum capio at. Vel at jugis sed. Metuo conventio valde at sino te. Venio commoveo jus et ullamcorper tincidunt ea ut.

An example of the left navigation on the Miami website. The links are blue with gray lines between them.The left navigation uses the Georgia font and the links should use the same blue color used for all links on Miami's website. The font size is 120%. There is also a thin border, 1px solid #DDD, between top level elements.

The hightligted element, which indicates the current page the visitor is on, has a red background #B61E2E with white #FFF text. A class of "selected" is added to the list item to apply this look.

The second level of navigation, or sub-navigation, uses the Georgia Italic font. The color is dark gray #444 and there is no border between elements. The font size is 100%.
