In this course, we'll use RTB to indicate the Rich Text Block, and RTE to indicate an Rich Text Element such as paragraph or heading within that block.
But outside of those, there are limitations;
The static RTB's and CMS-bound RTB do not have exactly the same feature set or editing experience. Similarly, RTB editing within the designer v. within the editor has some minor distinctions.
Designer - Static ( unbound ) RTB's can be edited directly on the canvas. CMS-bound RTB's can only be edited from within the CMS item dialog.
Designer ( Editor mode ) - Same experience however you can more easily go from seeing CMS-bound rich text content on a specific collection page, and access the correct CMS item dialog for editing that content. Still no WYSIWYG view.
Editor - Excellent support for RTB editing, in that it is currently the only place you can edit your CMS-bound rich text content in a WYSIWYG view where you can see your own styling and page context.
Designer - Static ( unbound ) RTB's can be styled directly on the canvas.
CMS-bound RTB's must be unbound first from the CMS, or you must create a new RTB with the same RTB class for styling purposes.
Designer ( Editor mode ) - no styling, this mode is for content-editing only.
Editor - no styling, designed for content-editing only.
The elements are pretty much identical, however occasionally new features are added which only work in the static RTB's.
? code block
17-Dec-2023 a new code block was mentioned, however it does not show in the editor.
12-Dec-2023 some form of Markdown support was added, which we're investigating.
17-Dec-2023 Webflow made an exciting announcement regarding markdown support, however it was a bit vague.
We need to test the new feature thoroughly however this appears to be the current shape of things.
