What's New?
We are so excited to share a ton of fun new additions to your Haystack content editor. This new tooling will make it easier than ever to build beautiful templates, manage and resize images, and create stunning posts, pages, and events. Let's dive in.

To add this element, select the Image and Text Layout option from your /-editor.
Then, customize with your image and text. Use the middle grey bar to adjust the widths of the columns and the arrows to flip the text and image ordering.
