Upgrade to Plone 3.3.5

Editing with Kupu

Set yourself up to use the 'visual editor' which is called 'Kupu'. You do that by going to

Preferences -> personal preferences -> content editor -> select 'Kupu' from the menu.

With Kupu you should be able to do all you need to do without going into HTML. For example you can vary text styles by using the scrolling menu (e.g. choose normal paragraph or heading or subheading. The effects of the latter two are illustrated in this page (e.g. 'Editing with Kupu' is a heading and 'inserting images from our Flickr site is a subheading).

Inserting images from our Flickr site

Go to the position where you want to inset a photo. Select the 'insert external link' icon (it shows a globe) from the tool bar. Then select the tab 'embed external object' and paste in some embedding text acquired from Flickr. 

Getting the embedding text from Flickr

Select the photo then choose the action with the little down arrow and option 'grab the HTML code'. Copy the text in the box. 

Some image and table styles defined

We have defined css classes ccc-right (see main image on home page),  ccc-imagebutton (for home page) and ccc-thumb (for rides and events).

The style image-inline which is applied automatically when you insert an image in Kupu has been over-ridden so as to have some padding round it. 

The table class cccbuttons is used for the table at the top of the Home Page

The table class centred is used at bottom of Home page.
