Source Code button 


 

This will bring a pop-up window called the Advanced Editor that allows you to place HTML code.

Or write your own code directly in the Advanced Editor.

Be aware of <img src> tags and where they source their assets from. If your code was imported from an existing website, it is likely that the images and assets are still being referenced from the same (old) URL's.

Any links in the original code will have to be re-configured to find the correct image or asset inside your new Cascade directories.

The preview windown will show you any broken image links that exist. Follow the normal image-placing steps to re-place lost images/assets.
