Add a section and organize it

Height, space, and width of a section
Minimum height, padding above and below (also separately for mobile), and a container full width.
Page or post?
Static content is a page, news and blogs are posts. This is how you choose, and this is how posts automatically appear on your site.
Giving a section a background color
Choosing a color from your brand style for a section, and why the text color changes automatically.
Copying a page
Create a copy with one click, or safely rewrite a live page and publish it later.
Aligning columns and making them equal height
Top, middle, bottom, or stretch: this is how your columns look neat and cards are equal height.
A column as a card
A frame with background around a column, and a card that extends over the previous or next section.
Make an entire card clickable
Want to make an entire tile clickable? Here’s how to do it with the Card block, Highlight, or an image with a link.
