Using the Nyla Editor

Edit your site without touching code

In the Editor you can visually edit your site without writing any code. The Editor interface consists of three primary areas:
  1. Left Panel
  2. Status Bar
  3. Preview

Left Panel

The Left Panel is where you will find most of the settings of your website. The Left Panel will change depending on your context and actions as you navigate through the Editor. There are a few major panels that you will see often:
  1. Sections
  2. Content (The content block)
  3. Design
  4. Content item settings

Shows you what you are currently editing (Page, Design Token, App etc.) Below you can see the state and quick actions.
