What is the block editor?
The block editor lets you build a page line by line. Each paragraph, heading, list, image or table is its own block that you can add, move, duplicate, delete or change into another type.
Where it's used:
- About Us page (Custom Features → About Us → Content)
- Blog & News article bodies (see What's the difference between News, Blog, and Announcement posts?)
The old page builder has been replaced. The About Us page no longer uses the previous drag-in page builder, and its ready-made design templates, sample images and font previews are no longer available. Your saved About Us content opens in the block editor instead.
The editor's menus, hints and placeholders follow the app language you have selected in the admin (English or Chinese).
How do I add content blocks?
There are two ways to add a block:
Method 1: Type /
- Click an empty line (or start a new line by pressing Enter).
- Type / to open the command menu. A "Type to search" hint appears.
- Keep typing to filter, then choose the block you want.
Method 2: Use the + button
- Hover over any block. A + button and a drag handle appear to its left.
- Click + to add a block below, or Option-click to add one above.
Blocks you can add include text, headings, bulleted and numbered lists, to-do lists, toggles, quotes, callouts, dividers, code, images, videos, files, tables, column layouts (2 to 6 columns) and Embed.
Tip: on an empty line you can also press Space to ask AI for help writing.
How do I edit text and manage blocks?
Click any text block and start typing.
Formatting text: select some text and a formatting toolbar appears next to it. Use Turn into to change the block type (for example, Text to a heading or list), and the buttons for Color, Bold, Italic, Underline, Strikethrough, Inline code, Link and Clear formatting.
Block menu: hover over a block and click its drag handle (the dotted icon next to +) to open the block menu:
- Delete removes the block.
- Duplicate adds a copy of the block below it.
- Turn into changes the block to another basic type, such as a heading, list, quote or callout.
Reordering: drag a block by its handle and drop it where you want it.
Can I still use design templates and block style settings?
No. The ready-made About Us design templates (such as the header, profile, pricing, FAQ and photo layouts) and the old block settings for box size, spacing, borders, fonts, corners and shadows belonged to the previous page builder and are no longer available.
To lay out your page in the block editor:
- Use headings, lists, quotes and callouts to structure your text.
- Use Color in the formatting toolbar to highlight text.
- Use a column layout (2 to 6 columns) to place text, images, videos or files side by side.
- Use toggles to keep longer sections tidy.
How do I add images, videos, files and embeds?
Add a media block with / or the + button, then fill it in:
- Image: upload an image or enter an image URL, choose its alignment and add an optional caption. An image that cannot be loaded is hidden instead of showing as a broken image.
- Video: upload a video file or paste a video link (including YouTube), and add an optional caption.
- File: upload a file for visitors to download, and add an optional caption.
- Embed: paste a link to show content from another website on your page, and add an optional caption.
Media inside columns, toggles and callouts: you can now place images, videos and files inside columns, toggles and callouts, not just text. Changes you make to them there (such as the URL, caption, image alignment, file details, to-do ticks, code language and table contents) are kept when you save.
How do I add tables and columns?
Tables:
- Type / and choose Table.
- Click a cell to type in it.
- Add or remove rows and columns as needed.
Columns:
- Type / and choose a column layout. Layouts from 2 up to 6 columns are available.
- Click an empty column ("Click to add a block") to add a block inside it.
- Add text, images, videos or files to each column.
How do I save, get writing help and fix loading problems?
Saving: click Save when you are done. Customers see the updated About Us page on your booking site after you save.
Language versions: switch between the English and Chinese versions of the page and edit each one. Remember to save after editing.
Writing help from AI: select the AI entry in the editor to open your admin assistant panel. The assistant replies with how it can help on this page and offers some suggestions. It does not change your content until you ask it to.
If "Could not load the article" appears: the editor is replaced by this message and a Retry button. Select Retry to load the content again. Your saved page is not changed.
Tip: open your booking site in a new tab to check how customers will see your About Us page.
