In-Line Dynamic Text

Add Dynamic Fields Within Paragraphs to Prevent Sentence Breaks

In-line dynamic text fields allow you to seamlessly combine dynamic and fixed text within a single paragraph. This helps keep the text consistent and prevents unwanted breaks.

For example, you can create a sentence like:
"The course took place from until "

Here, both the start and end dates are dynamic fields, so they can update automatically.

How to add in-line dynamic fields?

By default, Virtualbadge.io templates don’t include in-line dynamic fields. You will need to manually add them to your certificate design.

1. Open the "Text" Tab:
From the navigation menu, select the "Text" tab. Here, you'll see all the dynamic fields you've created for your certificate.
(If you need help creating dynamic fields, check out this article.)

2. Copy the Dynamic Field:
Choose the dynamic field you want to add (e.g., the start or end date) and click "Copy to Clipboard".

3. Insert the Dynamic Field:
In your design preview, click on the text field where you'd like the dynamic field to appear.
Paste the copied dynamic field directly into the text. The dynamic field will appear in curly brackets, like this: .

4. Preview the Text:
To see how your text will look without the curly brackets, toggle the option to display placeholder fields.

4. Manage Placeholders:
You can edit placeholder text by hovering over the dynamic field and clicking the three vertical dots.

 In-line dynamic text fields make it easier to create flexible and dynamic certificates without breaking up your text. Just follow the steps above to add and manage dynamic fields within your paragraphs.
