Working with templates, especially ones that include coding elements, can seem a bit confusing at first. Let's go through it!
To clarify how it works and guide you through making edits, the items you are seeing, such as <h1> and <u>, are part of HTML code. HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is a standard language used to format and style text on web pages and digital documents.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
<h1> - This tag is used to define a heading. Think of it like the title or main header in a document. It makes the text larger and bolder to stand out as a headline.
<u> - This tag is used to underline text, similar to selecting text and clicking the underline option in a word processor.
These tags don’t appear in the final document your clients see; instead, they format the text when the document is viewed in a browser or a compatible editor.
How to Customize the Template:
To change the text, you can simply type your custom content between the tags. For example:
<h1>Welcome to Our Services</h1>
will display as: Welcome to Our Services<u>Important Notice</u>
will appear as: Important Notice
If you don’t need formatting, you can remove the tags entirely. For example:
Replace
<h1>Welcome</h1>
with justWelcome
if you prefer plain text.
If you’re not comfortable making edits directly in the HTML code, you can copy the text into a program like Microsoft Word or Google Docs and make the formatting changes there before pasting it back.
