Note: The Page and Post text-editor are functionally the same, therefore the information provided here can be applied to editing the text in either-or.
From the dashboard, go to either Pages or Posts and then click on the title of the post/page which you would like to edit (Alternatively, you can hover over the title and select Edit whenever it pops up underneath). Doing so will take us to, obviously, edit the page or post of our choosing, and it is here that we will be able to enter and edit the text.
-Adding text is simple. So simple, in fact, that it works just like every other website or computer document…simply hover your cursor over the empty space and click. Now you can begin typing away.
-To make any of your text bold, highlight the word(s) you would like bolded, and then click the Bold button in the text editor tool bar (the large, capital B).
-To italicize your text, you will perform the same actions as you did when you went to bold, only select Italics button instead (the slanted I).
-You can align your post/page, or even just certain parts of the text, but highlighting the appropriate text and selecting one of the alignment options (align left, align center, or align right).
You should be able to get a solid understanding of what your text will look like within the editor box, but if you would like a better preview just select the Preview Changes button under the Publish box.
