  2. Identify the component that contains the text you want to replace. Components like headers, buttons, text boxes, or sections often contain editable text.

Step 2: Select the Text Component

  1. Click on the component containing the text you want to edit. This could be a heading, paragraph, button label, or any other element with text.
  2. When selected, the text will appear in the right-hand Design panel.

Step 3: Edit the Text

  1. Replace Heading or Paragraph Text: Click directly on the text box within the Design panel and start typing the new content. You can update both headings (e.g., H1, H2, H3) and paragraph text.
  2. Change Button Text: For buttons, click the text field in the button settings, and replace the text with your desired label (e.g., “Learn More,” “Contact Us,” etc.).
  3. Formatting: As you edit the text, you can change the font, size, color, and other text properties to match your design.

Step 4: Adjust Layout If Necessary

  1. After replacing the text, you may need to adjust the layout of the component. For example:
    • If the new text is longer or shorter, you might need to resize the text box.
    • You can adjust the padding or margins of the component to ensure the text fits properly.

Step 5: Preview and Save

  1. Once you're satisfied with the changes, click the Preview button to view how the text looks live on your website.
  2. If everything looks good, click Save to apply the changes to your site.
