#TEXT BLOCKS FULL#
Look for a short vertical line showing you that the spacer is going next to the text block only rather than being placed in a column that goes the full length of the page. To create an indent for one or more blocks of text, you can add a spacer to the left side of the text. On a cell phone, columns are placed one after the other, so you’ll want to check the cell phone preview as you’re designing a page to make sure the columns look good when they are stacked one on top of another. Use Column 1 for the questions and Column 2 for the answers as I do in the FAQ section of my website’s Services page. Left- and right-page spacers are often ignored when you look at your website on a cell phone because the narrow width of a cell phone screen automatically has a readable width.Īnother way to use two columns is to help headings in a Frequently Asked Questions list stand out and to add some white space on your page. You’ll probably want to use the same size spacers as margins on other pages for a consistent text width throughout your website. You can drag to resize the spacers to the width you want, but make them the same on either side of the text block for consistency. Pages full of text that goes the full width of a page are hard to read, so I often use spacers on either side of text blocks to make the text blocks narrower and more readable. These spacers create blank space on your page. Instead they use design elements called spacers on the right and left sides of pages. Squarespace and Weebly don’t have what you would call page margins. If you’re still with me and haven’t had to run to a bakery for sticky buns yet, I’ll now give you a rundown of the tricks I use most often when working with text blocks on my clients’ websites. When you place a text block next to another one, it stays as its own independent block. Weebly, on the other hand, distinguishes between headings (called Title elements) and regular text, so a heading won’t stick to a regular text element automatically.Īlso note that text blocks are not sticky side to side. In Squarespace, to make it a little more confusing, a sticky text block can contain both a heading and regular text, making it difficult to add something new into a long text block made up of headings and regular text. If you create a second text block and place it under or above another one, the two text blocks will stick together and become one text block.

You can add text to the block either by uploading a plain text file or by entering text directly into the code editor.The most important thing to remember about text blocks is that they are sticky on their tops and their bottoms, sort of like a double-frosted sticky bun (which would be extra-delicious, come to think of it).In the Placement Folder field, choose the folder where the block should be created.In the Name field, enter a name for your block.A single change to the text block will be present across all pages of the site that make use of the block. Like all blocks, a text block may be attached to a template, Configuration Set, or page, and may be reused across multiple pages. The administrator can then style the text block with a format.

In this case, a text block is the appropriate solution for the content region. For example, where an administrator desires the user to enter plain text only, without any formatting or images. More often an XHTML block will be the desired solution however, there are appropriate times to make use of a text block instead of an XHTML block. Text blocks are not as widely used as their XHTML counterpart is, because text blocks lack the standard WYSIWYG editor contained inside of XHTML blocks that allow for the creation of rich content with images, links, and standard text formatting options. Text blocks are basic blocks of content that can be reused throughout a site much like an XHTML block.
