A Note For Our Beta Testers

A word to the wise. If you participated in our Beta Program for this, please be aware that not every feature is ready for prime time yet, and we really want to ensure that everything in the new editor works really well out of the box. So some functionality that you saw in the Beta will not be available in this release (September 2033):

  • Paragraph style
  • Indenting
  • Super/sub script
  • Inline class/style
  • Select All
  • Help
  • Drag & Drop or Copy & Paste media (Video & Image) uploads.
  • Full Screen
