Tip If you prefer to create and edit content in HTML, use the HTML Editor component instead.

1. In Experience Builder, drag the Rich Content Editor component from the Components panel onto the page.
    
    ![Rich Content Editor in Components panel](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-communities-264-0-0-production-enus/bf7df212-91a1-4fa3-a007-4d6f3e3b470b/communities/images/community_builder_rich_text.png)
2. Add and format text (1), and add links (2), images (3), or YouTube or Vimeo videos (4) directly in the editor.

    When you add an image to your site for the first time, an asset file is automatically created and stored in the Org Asset Library.
    
    ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-communities-264-0-0-production-enus/bf7df212-91a1-4fa3-a007-4d6f3e3b470b/images/icon_note.png)
    
    Note If public access is enabled in Experience Builder at the page or site level, the **Let guest users view asset files and CMS content available to the site** preference is enabled in **Administration** | **Preferences**. This preference remains enabled as long as any page has public access enabled. If you upload images for use on site login pages, be sure that this preference is enabled.
3. Optionally, to add alt text to an image in the Rich Content Editor component, right-click the image when the component is in edit mode. Select **Add Alt Text**, enter your text, and click **Add**.
