  4. Provide the Attribution, if any, and indicate whether the Text is a quotation by checking the checkbox or leaving it unchecked.

  5. If desired, provide a Link Title and URL as a link destination for the text card.

Things worth mentioning

  • Only plain text is allowed in Text cards so you cannot add bold text, images, additional links, etc.

  • If Text is a quotation is checked, then the Featured text and Additional text will be enclosed in larger curly quotation marks.
