Now click on the media and text box and toggle between having the photo on
the left or the right. Put it on the right where it was originally. Note that the
menu that appeared above the block is also the same as it was before.
Click on the block again and replace whatever photo you have there with the one
that was there originally showing the man and woman and their crossword
puzzles. Toggle between photo left and right again but leave it on the right.
Update your page and you should be right back to where you started.
Did you notice that the photo in the right-hand menu box had the white circle so
you can select the focal point as you wish? Did you notice that you can access
the page hierarchy via the 3 offset horizontal lines (the hamburger) just as you
did earlier in Site View?
There are the same colour options for text,
background, and links that you saw earlier. Here I
have colourised the heading and background again
just as I did before.
One final thing to check is how we insert new blocks in this edit mode. No
surprise there as the process is just the same. Hover your mouse between two
other blocks and you get the blue line with the plus sign as you did before. Click
on the + sign and simply select your block style and it will appear for you. Note
that any new block, when selected, will have the same sort of menu above it that
you have already seen so you could use the up and down arrows for instance to
change the position of your new block on the page.
There are no rules regarding which edit mode to use. You use whichever you are
most comfortable with but do remember that there are some things you can
only do in Dashboard menu mode including allocating page access rights.
Self-Checks: Editing a Page using Dashboard menus:
These are a repeat of the same self-checks that you used earlier so repeat them
again now if you feel you want a little more practice using Dashboard menus
otherwise move on to our next topic: -
1 Change a word in the first text box
2 Make the photo appear on the left rather than the right of that media
and text box
3 Preview your page in desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts
4 Replace the photo with another of your choice, change the size of it,
then make it appear to the right of the text as it was when you began
5 If necessary use the crop option to alter the appearance of the photo
