Rich content fields for collections

While the ‘rich text’ field type is useful, it’s not sufficient for some of our needs. We’d really like to have the same editing capabilities that are available in a blog post – insertion of images and galleries, for example, including options for image placement and sizing.

As a workaround, we currently build dynamic page designs with optional elements for images and galleries and pull quotes, and then we use Velo code to expand and collapse those elements, based on whether or not the matching collection fields have content. But that doesn’t handle text flow around images, and all those optional fields make the collection messy and hard to use. Also, inevitably we run into situations where we don’t have enough of the optional fields.

We do need the Rich Content field type in EditorX
Slightly disappointing to see that it still isn’t available on EditorX even though it’s available on the general Wix Editor (According to Wix helpdocs)

Have an exact similar use case to Jim’s. Want to create some blog-like long form content using custom collections instead of the Wix Blog App.

Wix Blog Posts don’t meet my design needs.
