Tips For Using AIMS4's WYSIWYG Editor

The AIMS4 Content Management System includes a sophisticated WYSIWYG editor which allows users to format content without the need for any knowledge of HTML. The WYSIWYG editor operates in a very similar way to using Microsoft Word.

For users of AIMS4, shortcuts familiar to you will also work within AIMS4, for example:

  • Ctrl + B to bold
  • Ctrl + I to italicise
  • Ctrl + Z to undo
  • Ctrl + Y will redo.
If you have a document you have formatted in Microsoft Word, you will find that the formatting is retained if you copy and paste the document into AIMS4.

It is very easy to add links to other websites or webpages when you are using AIMS4's WYSIWYG editor. Simply type in the URL as www.socialchange.net.au or http://www.socialchange.net.au and you will find that a link to the website is automatically created.

There is also however a webpage link tool in your WYSIWYG editor. The advantage of using the link tool is that it enables you to add "tooltips" (explanatory text which appears when you hover over a link), to configure the link to open in new window, and to embed the link within a word or words in your content (for example, "the project undertaken by Social Change Online").
