To apply various text styles used throughout the site, you can use the Format [Paragraph] styles dropdown to select Normal, Heading 2, and Heading 3 text.
Heading 1<h1>text is typically reserved for Page titles.
For accessibility and HTML validation, please be sure to follow a standard outline hierarchy with your headings. {The general rule of thumb is you can't have a heading type (h1, h2, h3, h4, etc) on the page without the preceding heading type already on the page.} For example:
- Heading 1: Page Title
- Heading 2: first subhead to appear in the page's body copy
- Heading 3: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 2 section of body copy
- Heading 4: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 3 section of body copy
- Heading 5: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 4 section of body copy
- Heading 6: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 5 section of body copy
- Heading 5: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 4 section of body copy
- Heading 4: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 3 section of body copy
- Heading 3: any subhead to appear nested under, or appearing after the Heading 2 section of body copy
- Heading 2: first subhead to appear in the page's body copy
- Example of another Heading 2: another subhead to appear in the page's body copy
- Example of a Heading 3 nested under a Heading 2
- Example of a Heading 4: nested under a Heading 3
- Example of a Heading 3 nested under a Heading 2
