Headings

  Headings should be used to indicate content structure and hierarchy. Text should not simply be bolded if it is a logical heading.

Instead, use the  Text Format option in the WYSIWYG editor to change the style and format of the text to a heading.

There are six levels of headings, from H1 to H6, where H1 indicates the highest level of importance. There can only be a single H1 heading on any page and this is automatically generated with the page title. 

When creating additional headings on a page, be sure to start at a H2-level heading.

  You can have multiple heading levels on a page and they can be nested, but you must ensure that they appear in hierarchal order the first time that the level appears.

For example:

Correct:

H2-level heading
Text content
H3-level heading
Text content
H2-level heading
Text content
H4-level heading
Text content

Incorrect:

H3-level heading
Text content
H2-level heading
Text content
H3-level heading
