# Using the Editor

The Modern Newsletter editor uses a block-based editing experience that allows you to create and organize content visually.

The editor consists of a central editing canvas and a left sidebar containing tools for managing content, styles, media, and more.

### Editor Overview

The main editing area is where you build your newsletter by adding, arranging, and editing content blocks.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/Mmzi7fR6dOsB26dc3owT" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

Content can be moved, edited, and rearranged directly within the editor.

### Content

The **Content** tab displays content from the content sources connected to your Feedotter account.

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/vrQveq9nWGyaNqFL3sK4" alt="" width="410"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

To add content to your newsletter:

1. Open the **Content** tab.
2. Locate the article or content item you want to use.
3. Drag the content into the editor.

Once added, you can edit elements of the content directly within the newsletter.

### Blocks

The **Blocks** tab is currently under development and will be available in a future release.

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/BmxlCty1jQn5DcSL1rAW" alt="" width="433"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

As Modern Newsletters evolves, Blocks will provide additional building and layout options for newsletter creation.

### Styles

The **Styles** tab allows you to control the overall appearance of your newsletter.

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/pnRE0bvHYdFxGWmFbuPR" alt="" width="288"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

From this panel, you can adjust styling options that affect the look and feel of your newsletter as a whole (font family, heading sizes, etc.)&#x20;

### Media

The **Media** tab provides access to your Feedotter media library.

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/819D2sF0yVUiPgxYfmGR" alt="" width="434"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

From here, you can:

* Browse existing images in your account
* Insert images into your newsletter
* Upload new images to your media library

To upload an image:

1. Open the **Media** tab.
2. Click **the upload button within the Search Images bar.**&#x20;
3. Select the image you want to upload.

### Adding New Blocks

You can add new content blocks to your newsletter in two ways:

* Click the **Add (+)** button within the editor
* Type **/** while editing

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/3iT3Uuj8DqamVE088ktF" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

This opens the block menu, where you can insert items such as:

* Bullet Lists
* Numbered Lists
* Block Quotes
* Images
* Columns
* Sections

You may also see options for embedding content from supported sources such as:

* X (Twitter)
* LinkedIn
* YouTube
* Articles

Available options may change as the editor continues to evolve.

### Editing Content

Most content can be edited directly within the editor.

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/WGMdPyKiAt9O1fxfn8bE" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

<div align="left" data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/kvyTwjKv6gNU7J4OSxc5" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

For example, you can:

* Update headlines
* Edit text
* Modify content blocks
* Rearrange content within the newsletter

Changes are made directly within the newsletter canvas, allowing you to see your edits as you work.

{% hint style="warning" %}
