Links
If you paste in a URL, like https://ghost.org - it'll automatically be linked up. But if you want to customise your anchor text, you can do that too! Here's a link to the Ghost website.
Buttons
Add call to action buttons to your posts using button cards. Buttons can be center or left aligned, include custom button text, and link to any URL.
Quoting
If you want to add a quote, you just need to add a > to the beginning of the line or use the contextual toolbar, and it will put it into the quote format.
