Simple Editor vs. Visual Editor

In our Announcements tool, we have two new editing tools - Simple Editor and Visual Editor. These templates will give you complete control over the look and feel of your media releases!

To make the use of our biggest advantage of our Announcements tool, you can switch to a different template to help suit your media template needs!

Simple editor is best used if you like step-by-step instructions in our recommended template. You must include a logo, images, and headings.

Visual Editor is best used if you don't want to add images, logo or any headings. This is also beneficial for those that want to have clean spacing. You can just create your release all in one field - the text body! 

As recommended, always TEST SEND your release before publishing your release, especially when created in these templates.

Please note: Simple Editor is the selected automated template once you create a new Announcement. You will need to switch to the Visual Editor if you choose not to create your release in Simple Editor.
