Deep dive into Webflow's Rich Text Element | Part 1 of 3

[@crooker2]

I think you should be able to build components that can be embedded into a rich text element in order to make CUSTOM rich text elements for your clients to use on their self added content pages.

I love your videos, thank you so much!

[@lalalandcph]

Thanks for this! Will you do a video with content from a CMS Collection into a Rich Text Block? Signed up for the newsletter 🤙

[@MilesRoxas]

Part 2 coming soon it’ll have exactly that and more. thanks for signing up!

@@MilesRoxas Did you ever end up making this video? I've been trying to add my rich text content from a CMS Collection into a Rich Text Block for days and it's driving me insane. When I hit the Element Settings of a Rich Text Block it only gives me the option to "Edit Rich Text" and doesn't give me the option to link it to my CMS content. So frustrating!!

[@MilesRoxas]

@@PGMNTdigitaloh man I’ve been so behind on content but still planning on releasing it soon! I actually had that same issue but it was because I had made the right text block before webflow updated the rich text component. What solved it for me was just deleting the rich text element and dropping a new one in and then the ability to link it worked again.

[@floyd1411]

I almost stopped using webflow. This is making me want to reconsider.

[@CasualDrive]

how about making rich text element max width something specific like 900px but letting images shown at full width even above 900px? without manually adding padding to all text elements separately?

[@MostachoIrregular]

Just a heads up, the music is a bit loud.

[@MilesRoxas]

Yea that’s what I get for rushing to export! Better quality next time for sure!

[@alexanderbrown3965]

Thanks for the video. It's really frustrating that we can't add styling to the image blocks. I want to add more padding at the top and bottom of my images, but I can't without adding spacing to all paragraphs.

[@MilesRoxas]

I want to believe this is a bug that they’ll soon fix because it doesn’t make any sense! I’m looking for ways around it and will report back if I can hack it some way😂

[@Bars_Sl]

Add margin top/bottom to Figure tag, no?

[@MilesRoxas]

@@Bars_Sl can’t style the figure tag anymore 😑not sure if it’s a temporary bug at the time of recording but yea they did that to us

[@Bars_Sl]

@@MilesRoxas Just tried, I can 🙄

[@MilesRoxas]

Just checked too and it looks like we can edit the figure and image again. Good thing that was a temporary glitch during the rollout because it would have been kind of ridiculous....Thanks for letting all of us know!

[@ullmaneyeconsultants]

Is part 2 available?

[@tenyoum]

+1 this element is a pita ngl. maybe we should abandon it and switch to a container pattern

[@aseembathla4382]

I think you forgot uploading part 2 and 3?

[@poncardas]

Awesome walkthrough, but the music was super distracting 😢

[@MilesRoxas]

Yea got carried away hah it’ll be better mixed next time!

[@Mykhailo_Vasylenko]

nah i actually liked it!

[@tnltherapy15]

Keep making vidoes

[@mikepapahotel]

Really enjoying your style and content - but please lose the music - I'm here for your teaching not your music... 😊👍🏻

[@MilesRoxas]

Haha yea as I mentioned in other comments I rushed the export and forgot to master the mix… should be better next time! Thanks for watching

[@danielapro9755]

It still sucks
