Text Formatting

This page is a demonstration page of most of the styles that you would encounter in your site, and how they would look using this theme.

Bold/Italics/Strikethrough/Underline

This is some bold text. Duo Reges: constructio interrete. At miser, si in flagitiosa et vitiosa vita afflueret voluptatibus.

This is some italicized text. Est enim tanti philosophi tamque nobilis audacter sua decreta defendere. Quos quidem tibi studiose et diligenter tractandos magnopere censeo.

~~This text is struckthrough. Quis est, qui non oderit libidinosam, protervam adolescentiam?~~

This text is underlined. This should be used sparingly as underlined text on a website is usually a link.

Bulleted List

Quae similitudo in genere etiam humano apparet.
Si de re disceptari oportet, nulla mihi tecum, Cato, potest esse dissensio.
Conferam avum tuum Drusum cum C.
Haec quo modo conveniant, non sane intellego.
Illud mihi a te nimium festinanter dictum videtur, sapientis omnis esse semper beatos;
Non quam nostram quidem, inquit Pomponius iocans;
- Quasi ego id curem, quid ille aiat aut neget.
- Videmus igitur ut conquiescere ne infantes quidem possint.
Paupertas si malum est, mendicus beatus esse nemo potest, quamvis sit sapiens.
Sunt enim prima elementa naturae, quibus auctis vírtutis quasi germen efficitur.

Quae similitudo in genere etiam humano apparet.
Si de re disceptari oportet, nulla mihi tecum, Cato, potest esse dissensio.
Conferam avum tuum Drusum cum C.
Haec quo modo conveniant, non sane intellego.
Illud mihi a te nimium festinanter dictum videtur, sapientis omnis esse semper beatos;
1. Non quam nostram quidem, inquit Pomponius iocans;
2. Quasi ego id curem, quid ille aiat aut neget.
Videmus igitur ut conquiescere ne infantes quidem possint.
Paupertas si malum est, mendicus beatus esse nemo potest, quamvis sit sapiens.
Sunt enim prima elementa naturae, quibus auctis vírtutis quasi germen efficitur.

Note: Nested lists can be created by using the “increase indent” button in the editor. They can be removed by using “decrease indent”.

Links

Links that go to sites outside your site have an arrow graphic afterward, like this:

Visit the Diocese of Maine Website

Links to another page in your site do not have the graphic, like this:

More information about our rector can be found on the Meet our Clergy page.

A good rule of thumb is to use a reference to the page the user will vist as the link text, and not “click here”. For example, Download our brochure, not Click Here for the brochure.

Blockquotes

This is a “Blockquote”. It is a way to pull out some text within your page and draw attention to it. Stuprata per vim Lucretia a regis filio testata civis se ipsa interemit. Maximas vero virtutes iacere omnis necesse est voluptate dominante. Quis negat? Quae animi affectio suum cuique tribuens atque hanc, quam dico. Partim cursu et peragratione laetantur, congregatione aliae coetum quodam modo civitatis imitantur;

Horizontal Lines

It is possible to add horizontal lines to the text of the page. They can be useful in delineating areas of content, but should be used sparingly.

There should be a horizontal line between the above text and this text. Laboro autem non sine causa; Eam tum adesse, cum dolor omnis absit; Vide, ne etiam menses! nisi forte eum dicis, qui, simul atque arripuit, interficit. Quicquid porro animo cernimus, id omne oritur a sensibus; Dici enim nihil potest verius.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Videsne quam sit magna dissensio? Suo genere perveniant ad extremum; Cur post Tarentum ad Archytam? Immo alio genere; Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Quid, quod homines infima fortuna, nulla spe rerum gerendarum, opifices denique delectantur historia? Ergo opifex plus sibi proponet ad formarum quam civis excellens ad factorum pulchritudinem? Quam tu ponis in verbis, ego positam in re putabam. Verba tu fingas et ea dicas, quae non sentias? Cuius similitudine perspecta in formarum specie ac dignitate transitum est ad honestatem dictorum atque factorum.

Headings

As you can see from their use on this page, Headings define the hierarchy of the page. Heading Twos should be the largest heading you use on a page – to divide it into sections (Heading One is the page title), and then Headings Three through Six may be used to further nest information.

Heading One

Heading Two

Heading Three

Heading Four

Heading Five

Heading Six

Preformatted Text

Preformatted text can be useful for showing computer code, or typewritten information.

Paragraph

The default style for text is “paragraph”, but if you’ve added a heading or preformatted text, and then tried to add more text, it may continue in the previous style. When you are finished adding your text, highlight it and apply the “paragraph” setting to have it display as normal.
