Now that you're switched over to the text editor, you can highlight the text you want.

It's probably best to have your content written already. Then you can go back and the code below where you want it.

Using the code below you can highlight any text. You can even highlight heading tags!

If you want, you can change the color. Notice the example above is using "Yellow." But you can play around with any color that fits your site best.

That's it!

I hope you learned something.

Feel free to ask me any questions.

I don't like to go to the code page afraid of screwing it up

I'm the same way, but if you do it like this(in text editor) you can't mess anything up. If you do it wrong, it will show immediately and you can fix it. But it won't mess up the site or anything else.

Hi Chris, you can also just place the colour code you get from the colour chart ie #ffb071 or whatever? I've got highlighting on one of my pages, think it was from the Tiny editor that I added to the kitchen sink in WP. Thanks for this info.
