I’m creating webpages and I would like to have 2 columns side by side each of them with a different text format (like a newspaper front page). Do you think it’s possible ?

Merci !

You can use a custom collection with two types of text on it. The first one a heading, the second normal text. Use a glide sheet to add your content. The heading has 1 column and the normal text has one column. Each row appears as an item in the custom collection, so if you have the 1st row as just heading content, and the 2nd row as just normal text then only those items will show in each custom collection a.k.a just heading on the left and just normal text on the right. Essentially two columns.

To display 2 columns, use a 1:1 container or a 1:1 custom collection.
