The Toolbar

The re:write Toolbar is the gateway to editing the website and managing its assets.

The Toolbar appears in two versions. The second of which appears only once you have clicked on the Edit Page button, and indicates that you are operating in ‘Edit Mode’.

The features of the Toolbar are explained in detail below:

Hide/Show Widget
To the right of the logo is a small clickable widget. Clicking this will temporarily hide the Toolbar controls and all the Module controls. This is useful for quickly checking how your page edits look without the clutter of the re:write interface and without having to publish it. Click the widget again to redisplay the interface.

Edit Page button
Click this button to place the page you are viewing into ‘Edit Mode’. This will reveal further controls that will enable you to edit the content of the page.

Libraries button
Click this button to open the Media Library where you can manage the media assets of your website.

Logout button
Click this button to logout of re:write.

Add Module button
Click this button to open the Add Module Window where you can select a new component to add to the page you are editing.
