Highlight using Editable Select Element Plugin ✨

Hi everyone :wave:
I would like to know if it’s possible to do some trick to highlight selected text and save this highlighted text in the database for later view

Help please :pray:

Hello, @fvegauppen!

Thanks for reaching out.

Yes, you do have such a possibility, using our Advanced Rich Text Editor .

In order to do so, you need to add a specific event, while building a workflow for this plugin. This event in the workflow is called ‘‘Selection changed’’, the example in the screenshot https://prnt.sc/13h9usj.

With the help of this event, you can set up the chain of actions, which will lead you to save the text you highlighted. Here you can see how https://prnt.sc/13h9xf8. I’ve created a new field called ‘‘highlighted text’’ for your comfort, as you can see from the screenshot.

So, in the end, when you highlight some text https://prnt.sc/13habt4, it will be saved in your database for future reference https://prnt.sc/13hacvi.

Just, please, note, that this action you can apply to the text which is inside of the plugin’s element.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

Best regards,

Elena.
