## Edit an Empty Button

When a button has no content and the Editor is turned on, buttons that have no content appear with a black and white checkerboard pattern.

![Example of a vocabulary page with empty buttons represented by a black and white checkerboard pattern.](https://cdn.document360.io/7e1d5036-9a43-443d-8ea7-a17280ea302d/Images/Documentation/editing-buttons-image-15k4ml42.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-07T08%3A09%3A12Z&se=2026-11-07T09%3A09%3A12Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=S7RJEmkecihS9oFJYVbluveU7DHIpZOnp82McoeYJoo%3D)
