On the other hand, if you know what you are doing, you will be able to just focus on the content. And that will make the goal much easier and achievable. So, instead of leaving you alone in the path to figuring out the WordPress WYSIWYG Editor, we decided to create a little cheat sheet for you. You can either read it altogether or find what you are looking for. Without further ado, let&#8217;s dive in!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>WordPress WYSIWYG Editor: What is it?<\/h2>\n<p>The acronym WYSIWYG stands for What You See is What You Get. It is, essentially, a text editor, like Microsoft Word, or Google Docs, for example. All of these text editors, promise the user to receive exactly what he\/she is seeing. While, Google Docs, and Microsoft Word, are not exactly the best examples, as what the users are interacting with there is the document itself, whereas in WordPress&#8217; WYSIWYG the users are interacting with the\u00a0<strong>backend\u00a0<\/strong>of the website, the mentioned services are close enough to the concept in question.\u00a0 In all of these content creation tools, we have common functions, that will be explained further in the present article.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WYSIWYG Definition:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>WYSIWYG is an acronym that stands for &#8220;what you see is what you get&#8221;. Most often than not it refers to a user interface that allows users to view the content that they are creating\/editing in a manner that is very similar or identical to the end result. A WYSIWYG, by definition, promises for the user to be able to directly manipulate the layout of a document, without having to remember the names of the layout commands.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to Bold, Italicize, Bullet, or Number Text in WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>If you are asking yourself how to format the text in the WYSIWYG, it is crystal clear that you already know <a href=\"\/wordpress-tutorials\/how-to-post-on-wordpress\/\">how to create posts<\/a> and pages. There is a menu bar in the WYSIWYG, \u00a0just above the white window where you enter the text.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bolding\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; To bold, any part of your text just click on the\u00a0<strong>B\u00a0<\/strong>button, located in the first place of the menu bar, marked on the picture above. And of course, you can just mark the chosen text and click <strong>Ctrl+B,\u00a0<\/strong>that way you will\u00a0achieve the same result.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6464 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wordpress-bold-button.png\" alt=\"WordPress Bolding\" width=\"1407\" height=\"77\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Italicizing &#8211;\u00a0<\/em>If you want to make a part of the text to stand out for some reason, but don&#8217;t want to\u00a0<strong>bold<\/strong>\u00a0it, you can always\u00a0<em>Italicize<\/em> it. How? Mark the text you decided to Italicize, and click the\u00a0<em>I\u00a0<\/em>button, located just next to the\u00a0<strong>B\u00a0<\/strong>one. Or, of course, you can mark the text and click\u00a0<em>Ctrl+I.<\/em><br \/>\n&lt;<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6465 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wordpress-italicize-button.png\" alt=\"WordPress Text Box\" width=\"1407\" height=\"77\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To bullet a part of a\u00a0text can come in handy in a number of ways.<\/li>\n<li>You can list important factors<\/li>\n<li>Make a to-do list for the day, or the month<\/li>\n<li>List virtually anything that comes to your mind, but does not have any specific order. You may ask why?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Because you can number the things you need to.<\/li>\n<li>Numbering is different from bullet<\/li>\n<li>Numbering has its own internal hierarchy. The hierarchy of the numbers.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Enough unfunny jokes. Let&#8217;s get to business.

Bullet points or numbers. Then just click on the appropriate the task button and start listing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to Align Text in the WordPress WYSIWYG<\/h2>\n<p>Depending on the way your website looks you could need a\u00a0different type of alignment of the text. \u00a0Here are the buttons that are responsible for the text alignment.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6467 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wordpress-align-text-button.png\" alt=\"Text WordPress\" width=\"1403\" height=\"75\" \/><br \/>\nIf you want to align the whole text to a direction just click the appropriate button before you start writing. If the text is already created just click Ctrl+A. That will mark the whole text. Afterward, you can choose the alignment, you consider is most suitable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Link or Unlink a Word or Phrase to an Outer Page<\/h2>\n<p>You can make virtually any word or symbol to be a clickable link to another page on your site or an outer link to a third-party site. To do that, just mark the word, phrase or symbol, you want to link and click the\u00a0<strong>Insert\/edit link<\/strong>\u00a0button. With hotkey command\u00a0<strong>Ctrl+K.<\/strong> To unlink any phrase click the\u00a0<strong>Remove link<\/strong>\u00a0button.

But right there at the end of the line, there is a mystical button, that maybe you are familiar with, but maybe you are not. We are talking, of course, about the\u00a0<strong>Toolbar Toggle<\/strong> button. After you click it a sub-menu will unfold before you. Here is where all the magic happens.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7422 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/toolbar-toggle-button-wordpress.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1406\" height=\"107\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>How to Change the Font Color\u00a0in WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>Now that we unraveled the secrets of the\u00a0<strong>Toolbar Toggle,<\/strong>\u00a0let&#8217;s examine what was hidden from us. Here, as you probably guessed already, is the\u00a0<strong>Text Color<\/strong>\u00a0button.\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7423 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/change-font-color-button-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1410\" height=\"104\" \/><br \/>\nWhen you click that button a colorful menu will show up.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7424 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/change-font-color-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"175\" \/><br \/>\nHere you can choose from a common color palette. But if you look closer, you can choose a specific\u00a0color. \u00a0Just click the\u00a0<strong>Custom&#8230;<\/strong>\u00a0button.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7425 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/custom-color-adding-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"175\" \/><br \/>\nA very familiar color palette will pop up.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-49591 size-medium\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/custom-color-palette-wordpress-300x264.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"264\" \/><br \/>\nYou can either play with the color bars in search of the ideal one. \u00a0Or, enter the exact numerical value if you know it.<br \/>\nThis is how to change the font color in WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to Insert a Quotation in WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to quote someone, you can either just put quotes on both sides of the phrase.\u00a0<em>Or you can make it stand out. \u00a0Two ways to do that.<\/em><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7427 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/quotation-line-adding-button-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1410\" height=\"105\" \/><br \/>\nFirst, you can mark the text you want to stress, then just click the\u00a0<strong>Blockquote<\/strong>\u00a0button. Bear in mind that not every theme supports this type of content stressing. The way a black quoted text looks\u00a0can differ from theme to theme.<\/p>\n<p>The second way to stress a quotation is by adding a horizontal\u00a0line below and above the phrase, thus separating it and making it stand out from the other text.<\/p>\n<p>Now that you know how to align text, change the font color, bold, and italicize it, you can play around with the different settings and make the quotation really differentiate itself from the rest of the content.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to Add Special Character, Increase the Indent or Cross Out Text in WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>Those three operations are a bit specific. You won&#8217;t need them every day, although who knows.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Adding a\u00a0Special Character<\/h2>\n<p>To add a\u00a0<strong>Special Character\u00a0<\/strong>just click this button in the menu.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7428 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/special-character-button-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1410\" height=\"105\" \/><br \/>\nYou will see a pop-up window, from which you can choose the character you need.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-49592 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/special-character-table-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"666\" height=\"363\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Strikethrough a Part of the Text<\/h2>\n<p>This is what you can achieve by clicking the first button in the unraveled menu.<br \/>\nYou can either click on it and start writing or mark text and then push the button in order to cross it out.
