Using the Editor

Learn how to build and edit newsletters using Feedotter's modern 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.)

Media

The Media tab provides access to your Feedotter media library.

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.

  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

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.

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.
