The page blocks, explained

Blocks are the building pieces of your page. Mix and match them to tell your story. Here are the ones you will use most:

  • Hero, a big welcoming banner with your name, a tagline and an image. Its heading and subheading each have their own size, and the whole banner can get a background image, color and font.

  • About the author, your photo and bio (rich text), with an optional button. The photo can sit left, right, above or below the text.

  • Bookshelf, shows your books in a grid with buy buttons.

  • Featured book, spotlights a single book with its own buy button. You control the title (or a custom one), where it sits, and the button’s position, text and style.

  • Collections, shows your series and box sets as tiles.

  • Button, a call-to-action link, for example to a newsletter.

  • Text, free rich text for anything you want to say - with an optional background color and shadow it becomes a floating tile.

  • Checklist, short text items with a checkmark in front, great for "what you will get" lists.

  • Image, a single image with an optional caption and internal link.

  • Social links, icons linking to your social profiles.

  • Menu, internal links and link list, navigation to other parts of your page.

  • Title, divider and spacer, small layout helpers.

Styling any block

Click a block and look at the right-hand panel: blocks with a title have Title size, font, style (bold/italic) and color controls, and every block has a Background color and Vertical spacing setting at the bottom of the panel. A page-wide default font for all headings lives in the left panel under "Headings font".

Blocks on paid plans

Richer blocks, such as a blog feed, testimonials, an FAQ, columns, a quote, video and a newsletter widget, are unlocked on the Pro and Platinum plans. Locked blocks show an upgrade hint in the editor.
