Inserting HTML

An HTML block is usually used with external functions. For example:

• An offsite donation processor
• A widget
• An iFrame (not recommended)
• An embed from a different website

Many times the offsite source provides the HTML code all you have to do is copy and paste it although you may write it yourself.

Inserting an HTML Block

• Place your cursor where you want the HTML to appear
• Click the plus sign in the small black square to the left of your cursor
• Click the HTML icon
• Place your cursor inside the box provided
• Paste or type the code you wish to add.
• Publish

Editing an HTML Block

Click directly on the HTML block and use the Editing icons to open the HTML window and make changes.

You may also use the justification icons on the small black rectangle to move the block left or right allowing other text / images to wrap around it. Or delete it if you wish.

Example: Embedding a YouTube Video

1. Go to YouTube and find the video you want to embed.
2. Click the "Share" button below the video and select "Embed."
3. Copy the embed code provided by YouTube.
4. In Simple Updates CMS, follow the steps above to navigate to the desired page and open the editor.
5. Paste the YouTube embed code into an HTML block.
6. Publish the changes.
