Tips for Using Triond’s New Online Editor

Triond’s new Online Editor makes the submission process much easier.

Triond’s Online Editor makes submitting articles much easier. You don’t have to create a file, save it, hunt for it and then upload it, etc. Another plus is that if you need to make a fix, you don’t have to repeat the whole process, modifing an existing file, saving, then uploading.

Tips for Using Triond’s Online Editor

  • You can create a file if you wish, in Word, then click on the icon with the blue W to paste it from same
  • You can insert an image (icon that looks like a TV)
  • You can embed a video (icon that looks like a strip of film)
  • If your text mysteriously disappears, try hitting the active blue curved arrow to get it back
  • If you later decide to eliminate it, try hitting the other curved arrow.

The Online Editor does present some problems, though

  • I don’t see an actual spell checker so you might decide to create your article, check it, and paste it in from Word, over typing it directly into the Online Editor. You will see, however, words underlined in red that may need correcting.
  • Also, if you type directly into the Online Editor and submit an article that is later declined by Triond–and then decide that you want to place it elsewhere–you will have lost that particular article, as I found out with 3 articles that I wrote yesterday. (I should have listened to that inner voice prodding me to save a copy of each article.)

The Online Editor tool does make submitting articles much easier and using these tips for using Triond’s Online Editor will help you to avoid spelling mistakes or lost work.

    Thanks, Athlyn, for test driving this new feature for us.
    Having read many of your articles, I find it surprising you’d have rejected articles–your articles are always well written.

    Well, hee hee, I was detailing other revenue share sites–guess I’ll have to include them at my writing blog instead!

    That is what I dislike about the Editor. There is no spell check. It would be great to have it.

    Hi Ruby,
    It doea appear to highlight words by underlining them in red.

    Triond has now instituted the draft feature so that authors can save works in progress in the Online Editor–so for those who prefer to type directly into the box, over pasting from Word, this should prove invaluable.
