The Web Pages configuration screen contains a WYSIWYG Editor for editing your website pages. WYSIWYG stands for "What You See is What You Get". This means that the editor allows you to visually design a website by directly adding and formatting content (text, images, and other objects) without having to write HTML code. The HTML is automatically generated. The web pages you design will be fully responsive. This means that the website will adapt its layout for optimal viewing on different-sized devices.
