Text Formats

Plain text

  • No HTML tags allowed.
  • Lines and paragraphs are automatically recognized. The <br /> line break, <p> paragraph and </p> close paragraph tags are inserted automatically. If paragraphs are not recognized simply add a couple of blank lines.
  • Web page addresses and email addresses turn into links automatically.

  • You can align images, videos, blockquotes and so on to the left, right or center. Examples:

    • Align an image to the left: <img src="" data-align="left" />
    • Align an image to the center: <img src="" data-align="center" />
    • Align an image to the right: <img src="" data-align="right" />
    • … and you can apply this to other elements as well: <video src="" data-align="center" />

  • You can caption images, videos, blockquotes, and so on. Examples:

    • <img src="" data-caption="This is a caption" />
    • <video src="" data-caption="The Drupal Dance" />
    • <blockquote data-caption="Dries Buytaert">Drupal is awesome!</blockquote>
    • <code data-caption="Hello world in JavaScript.">alert("Hello world!");</code>

  • You can embed media items:

    • Choose which media item to embed: <drupal-media data-entity-uuid="07bf3a2e-1941-4a44-9b02-2d1d7a41ec0e" />
    • Optionally also choose a view mode: data-view-mode="tiny_embed", otherwise the default view mode is used.
    • The data-entity-type="media" attribute is required for consistency.
