Text Block

Text Blocks are used when there is a need to reuse plain text content. Because Text blocks lack the WYSIWYG capabilities of XHTML blocks, they can be formatted in a number of ways by adding different XSL stylesheets.

To create a text block:

  1. In the Home area, select New -> Default -> Block.
  2. Select the type of block you are creating. In this case it will be Text Block.
  3. On the Content pane:
    Enter any plain text desired.
  4. On the Metadata pane:
    Enter any Metadata desired.
  5. On the System pane:
    Name - Type in the name of your new block.
    Parent Folder - This is where the block will be stored. It's most useful to store blocks in a central or common location.
  6. Click Submit to save your block.
