Global blocks

Some blocks are global blocks. Their content is set in one place, and it looks the same everywhere the block is used. Think of a block with testimonials, your projects or a contact banner.

• You usually edit the content on the home page (the dashboard) of the CMS, not on the page where the block appears.
• On the page itself, you only choose where the block goes.
• One change applies straight away to every page with that block.

Automatic blocks

Some global blocks fill themselves, for example:

• a list of the latest news posts;
• an overview of open vacancies;
• your projects or case studies.

These blocks take their content from other pages on your website. To change them, you change those pages. A new vacancy, for example, automatically appears in the list as soon as you publish it.

Multilingual website?

Translate the content of global blocks too: on the CMS dashboard, choose the language at the top and fill in the text. Automatic blocks show, in each language, the translated version of the pages they take their content from.
