How to Add Text to Your WordPress Page

1. In your new page, click on the “Add Element” button. Note: If you don’t see this button click on the “Backend Editor” button underneath the title and make sure it says “Classic Mode”. This option will only show if you have the drag-and-drop page editor plugin called “Visual Composer”. This plugin comes pre-installed on all Bridge theme demos.

2. Select the option titled “Text Block“. Of course, you can choose any of the elements listed. You will notice that each element has it’s own settings and abilities. Test them out to see what looks best on your page!

3. To add more content, click on the 1. “+” button. The icon shown by arrow 2. duplicates the element(s) inside of the “row” (grey box with text inside the white box). The icon show by arrow 3. will trash the row.
