- Enter the text for the knowledge base article you wish to write. You have the ability to add pictures, videos, tables and embedded URL's to the article. Note: You can copy and paste the contents of a Word Document into the knowledge base with no issues, and it should also maintain its formatting. However, any images will not be copied over at the same time. This is a limitation of browsers, rather than the product itself. The images can be copied and pasted in separately after the text has been entered. Any text that is formatted as a URL will be converted to a link when you save the article. If you then want to change the text of the link while maintaining where it links to, you can edit the article again and click on the link and select "edit text" from the given options.
