Hi everyone, I've added an idea to Idea Exchange to enhance Experience Builder's Rich Content Editor component. It feels very outdated and is missing a lot of features. If you could take a look and upvote if you agree that would be wonderful!

Here's what's in the idea:

Color Picker

• Theme Colors: Include colors from theme settings, similar to PowerPoint, where theme colors are shown with various shades in the color picker.
• Manual Color Selection: Allow manual color selection using color codes like hex, rgba, etc.

Fonts

• Theme Fonts: Offer fonts from the theme settings as default options in the font selector.
• Full Font Selection: Allow us to choose from all fonts available in the theme settings.

Heading Levels & HTML Semantics

• Heading Levels: The LWR version currently allows only font size selection, not heading levels, which removes semantics and accessibility from the text. Please bring back the option to select heading levels.
• Content Record Semantics: When content with heading levels is saved in a CMS content record, those semantics are stripped out in the Experience Builder’s rich content field. This should be fixed.

Images

• Allow images pasted into the editor to stay visible after exiting the editor. Currently, pasted images disappear once you leave the editor.

Markdown Support

• Enable markdown syntax formatting to streamline adding structure to content. This would also require bringing back HTML semantics for full compatibility.

Links

• Include expressions in the “Add a Link” modal, allowing users to easily link to specific pages within the site without manually entering the full URL.

Merge Fields

• Add a menu button to insert merge fields, making it easier to display dynamic content without memorizing expressions.

Code View

• Offer a code view mode to allow basic HTML elements for enhanced content customization—this is a standard feature on many CMS platforms.
