Headings

Headings are beneficial to the presentation of content as they break up large amounts of text and provide organization to your copy.

Heading structure is hierarchical. Headings are designed to be used in a specific order, starting with Heading 1 (this is always the Title field and should not be used from within the Heading block) and cascading down to Heading 6. The lower-numbered heading is always used first. For example, a portion of related copy can be assigned a Heading 2, then broken up with Heading 3s to give the content a structured format.

The headings below show the defined style for each heading level on the Terry website, including the Normal format that is used for standard, non-heading paragraph text.

Headings do not need any additional formatting (bolding, italics, etc.) once they are added to a page. They also cannot be formatted as a link.

To create a heading, follow these steps:

1. Create a new placeholder for a block. The placeholder text (“Type / to choose a block”) is displayed.
   
   

    

2. Type /heading in the placeholder. A list of heading block options is displayed.
   
   

    

3. Select the second Heading block option (it has a blue H as its icon). A heading is created for the block with a default setting of H2. You can change this later.
   
   

    

4. Replace “Your Attractive Heading” with your desired heading.

5. In the block menu, select the desired heading level in the Heading Tag section of the Block tab. For example, if you want to use a Heading 3, select H3 as shown below. Remember, headings are used to create hierarchy, not to style text. Always select the correct heading level and styling can be applied later.
   
   

   
   The heading is reformatted to reflect the selected heading.
   
   

Existing Text as Headings

Paragraph text that already exists on a page can be converted to a heading by following these steps:

1. Select a paragraph block with the text you want to convert to a heading.
   
   

    

2. Click theParagraph icon in the formatting toolbar to display a list of blocks to which the text can be converted.
   
   

    

3. Select the second Heading block option (it has a blue H as its icon). The text is converted to an H2 by default.
   
   

    

4. In the block menu, select the desired heading level in the Heading Tag section of the Block tab. For example, if you want to use a Heading 3, select H3 as shown below.
   
   

   
   The heading is reformatted to reflect the selected heading.
