We have created a collection of tools used to build and embed听more advanced elements on your site without requiring knowledge of HTML or editing the source code of your pages. These tools allow you to easily embed elements such as a faculty/staff directory, E-Net feed, YouTube playlist, or Flickr Gallery.

Below you will see all the Advanced Elements available to you, and what each of them does. Visit the individual element pages for detailed instruction on how to use each of them.

To embed an Advanced Element, simply click on the听Add Element button located directly above the Rich Text Editor:
