How To Work With PageFly Custom Code Editor
Learn how to easily add custom code to modify text content and style on your pages.
- Step 1: View the Custom CSS and Custom Javascript boxes. In the example below, we will add a code to fix the error: Sometimes when you see your pages on the mobile, the page ends up with an undesired extra space to the right. (It slides from the left to the right).
- Step 2: Click on the Save button
- Click the Dismiss button or the Close icon on the top if you don’t want to use the custom code anymore. When you take this action (Dismiss or Close), the custom code that you changed will not be saved.
- Click the Save change button if you want to save the custom code you made and it will be applied to your page editor.
- CUSTOM CSS code: You don’t have to place any <style> tags in this area as they’re already added for your convenience.
- CUSTOM JAVASCRIPT code: You don’t have to place any <script> tags in this area as they’re already added for your convenience.
- The Custom code editor only supports JavaScript/ CSS code, so it doesn’t allow you to add HTML code.
