HTML for customizing EdReady

There are several places in EdReady where you can alter the way that messaging displays to students using HTML: the Homepage, goal description and Congratulations Page, and messaging (banner, messages, and post-initial diagnostic).

For those that are not familiar with HTML, you can find many cheat sheets and resources online (such as here and here). We have provided some examples below for the HTML tags that we most commonly see our members using with EdReady. When you copy-and-paste the text below, make sure that you change any BLUE text with your custom values.

Hyperlink to a URL

note: it is very important that your link include "http://" or "https://" - this helps your browser to realize it is loading a completely different site, rather than a page on the current site

 

note: if you want the link to open in a new tab/window, use the following format:
<a target=_blank href="http://YOURURL2.com">NEWWINDOW</a>
