What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Announcing the OSOM Community Discord

Nothing happens in a vacuum, including our work here at OSOM. Beyond the legacy and achievements that all technology builds on, there’s the interplay between our partners, fans, customers, and even critics, opening the door for dialogue. That’s why I’m excited to announce the OSOM community Discord server.

Here at OSOM, we pride ourselves on values like customer privacy and transparency. Our privacy policy makes most of the former clear, but it’s an idealistic and philosophical approach we apply to almost everything, and it’s even part of why we partnered with Solana — privacy and security are core components of what they’re building. Most companies like to keep their secrets, but we’re happy to highlight the things we’re doing and the precise ways we’re doing them. 

This is a fundamentally different way of doing business compared to most other companies, and it’s a big part of why I came to work at OSOM. (If we haven’t met before: Hello! My name is Ryne Hager, I’m OSOM’s new Head of Community Engagement, and I used to be a reporter at Android Police.)

More than once, someone has described this seemingly radical viewpoint — actually telling people details about your product, your business, and how you built the things you sell — as the “anti-Apple” approach. When so many companies are twisting up secrecy into a way to hide not just feeds and speeds but even violate customer privacy, OSOM is proud to have different goals. It was clear to me when I was a reporter. And now, I’d like to help make that distinction clear to everyone. 

A cynic might see the new OSOM community Discord as merely a checkbox in a 2022-era social media strategy, but we’d actually really enjoy telling you all about the things we’re doing as we hear your own desires, opinions, and concerns. That means answering questions and hearing feedback as we iterate, improve, and illuminate more of the details behind how a smartphone like the Solana Saga and future products get made. 

Kicking things off, we’re planning an AMA with CEO Jason Keats there this Wednesday, September 14th at 3PM ET/Noon PT. Ever wondered what sort of testing and certification processes go into a phone before you buy it? Or precisely how the curves and edges get designed, milled, finished, and assembled? Where does the “crypto” start and end on the Saga? And how can software be optimized to better respect your privacy? We'd love to answer your questions.

Some companies might dress up product announcements on a stage like a magic show, but there’s no mysticism in the precise sciences of design and engineering behind these products. This is our opportunity to pull aside the curtain. So come and take a peek

Own Your Privacy.
