What you see is what you get.
It’s not just a good way to live life.
What you see is what you get (also known as a WYSIWYG) is also a kind of text editor that makes writing online a little easier!
And at long last, we’ll be offering it in your Squidoo module editors. You’ll be able to quickly bold, resize, pick a few fonts, link sites, and all the basic fun stuff a standard WYSIWYG editor provides. Hopefully this will save you time spent tinkering with html and CSS hacks and will help get back to basics.
You’ll see the WYSIWYG in your workshops soon, probably next week. We’ll also be experimenting with a new bigger “overlay” module editor, so you can see more of your content at once with less scrolling about. It should make for a smoother editing experience in the Workshop. We polled the Giant Squids on how they’d feel about it, and with good feedback in hand we’ll be trying the overlay out. If it’s not much loved, though, we’ll be listening and will have the ‘rollback’ button handy!
