Yes, there is an easy way to convert a text block into a heading or paragraph element in Webflow with H1 tags. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Select the text block that you want to convert.
  2. In the right sidebar, click on the "Element Settings" tab (the gear icon).
  3. Under the "Element Type" section, you'll see a dropdown menu with options like Heading, Paragraph, List, etc.
  4. Click on the dropdown menu and select the appropriate element type. For example, if you want to convert the text block into a heading with H1 tags, select "Heading 1".
  5. Once you've selected the desired element type, Webflow will automatically convert the text block into the chosen element with the corresponding HTML tags (e.g., <h1> for Heading 1).

By following these steps, you can easily convert a text block into a heading or paragraph element with H1 tags in Webflow.

Note: It's important to use heading tags (like <h1>, <h2>, etc.) properly to maintain good SEO practices and hierarchical structure on your website. While it's possible to change the appearance of the converted element using Webflow's styling options, it's recommended to use appropriate heading tags based on the content hierarchy rather than just for visual styling purposes.

Example:

Let's say you have a text block that you want to convert into an H1 heading:

<div class="text-block">  <p>This is the content of the text block.</p></div>

After converting it into an H1 heading, the HTML will look like this:

<h1>This is the content of the text block.</h1>

Using the appropriate heading tags helps search engines understand the importance and structure of your content, which can positively impact your site's SEO.
