Overview
Creating engaging sections like an About Us page requires proper structure and visual appeal.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to:
  • Organise content using layout elements
  • Format and style text
  • Add a full-width video background

1. Structuring Your Content
Use Layout Elements
Start with a layout container to keep your content organised:
  • Drag and drop the Layout element onto your page.
  • Click inside the layout to choose the type of content you want to add (e.g., text, images).
Add and Style Text
  • Add Headings:
    Insert a text element and use the Style option to match your site’s heading format.
  • Add Body Text:
    Drag in another text element for descriptions. Double-click to edit and apply formatting such as alignment.
  • Improve Spacing:
    Use the Margins settings in the right-hand panel to create space around text for better readability.
2. Creating a Video Background
A video background can make sections of your site more engaging and visually appealing.
Add the Background Container
  • Drag a Shape element into your layout.
Adjust Size
  • Set the Width to 100% to span the full page.
  • Define the Height (e.g., 500px) to control how much space the video occupies.
Upload and Apply Video
  1. Go to the Background section in the right-hand panel.
  2. Click the pen (edit) icon.
  3. Open the Image/Video tab.
  4. Upload your video and click Select to apply it.
3. Preview and Test Your Design
Before publishing, check how your content appears across devices:
  • Click Preview at the top of the editor.
  • Switch between desktop and mobile views.
  • Ensure:
    • Text is readable
    • Margins are properly spaced
    • Video displays correctly on smaller screens
