Edit text

Richt Text Editor — View Rich Text Editor

The text can be customized with a wide variety of formatting using the rich text editor.

Headline: Set heading in the continuous text
Format text: Bold, Cusive, Underline, etc.
Formatting: Copy and remove formatting

Note on links: Previously, links pointing to an external page were automatically opened in a new tab. With the 5.2.2 release, it is now possible to manually determine whether a link should be opened in the same tab or in a new tab. If the “New window” option is selected, the link is opened in a new tab; if the “Top” option is selected, the link is opened in the same tab.

Integrate media

Insert media — Include media file at Text & Media content element.

Images and other media can be included, which are then displayed next to the text and in the mobile view above the text. Images can be edited with TYPO3's built-in image editor.

Available media

The following file types can be included in the content element Text & Media: GIF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, SVG, TIFF, TIF.
In addition, media from the following sources can be included: YouTube, Vimeo, Remoteimage, Soundcloud, Panopto.
Maximum image sizes of 3840px per edge length (i.e. height and width) are permitted. 4K resolution is therefore possible.

Position

Media can be placed either to the left or to the right of the text. By default, media is placed to the right of the text. This setting can be defined only for the whole content element. All media in same text & media element will be aligned the same.
