The editor
Visual and Markdown editing, blocks, images and keyboard shortcuts.
Overview
Markdown is the stored format. The visual editor is a view over it, so switching between Visual and Markdown never loses anything. If a document contains something the visual editor cannot show exactly, it opens in Markdown mode and says why.
Insert blocks with + (searchable) or by typing / in an empty paragraph. Callouts, figures, galleries, buttons, embeds (YouTube and Vimeo), video, audio, details and a table of contents are available as blocks.
- Save: Ctrl/⌘ S
- Undo / redo: Ctrl/⌘ Z / Ctrl/⌘ Shift Z
- Move a block: Alt Shift ↑ / ↓
- Duplicate a block: Ctrl/⌘ Shift D
- Delete a block: Alt Shift Backspace
Images come from the media library or are uploaded by choosing, dropping or pasting. Alt text is required. The featured image can be chosen, uploaded or generated, with a focal point.
