Enter biographical information about your contributor using the Text tab in Webform, in the BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE box. This information appears in the Author Bio tab for your title in CataList.

HOT TIP:

It’s best to keep your HTML tags simple by using <p> for paragraph markers, <i> for italics, <br> for line break and so on.

The more complex your HTML tags are the more likely it is for a downstream recipient to not be able to display your text the way you intend.
