Understanding Content Blocks

Every page on the LXGlobal website is built from content blocks — reusable sections that you can mix and match to create different page layouts.

What Are Content Blocks?

Think of content blocks like building blocks. Each block is a section of the page with a specific purpose:

Block	What It Shows	Used For
Hero Banner	Full-width banner with background image and heading	Top of every page
Text Block	Heading with body text	Introduction text, descriptions
Media Block	Text alongside an image (two columns)	Detailed content with visuals
Media Block Group	Grid of image cards	Listing sub-pages or categories
Service Cards Grid	Grid of service/sector cards	Showing related services
Resources Banner	Call-to-action banner with button	Encouraging contact or next steps
Governance Cards	Simple navigation card tiles	Quick links to related pages
Profiles List	Team member profiles with photos and bios	Leadership pages
Contact Form	A contact form with image	Contact page
Carousel	Rotating image gallery	Showcasing multiple images

How Pages Are Structured

Almost every page on the site follows this pattern:

1. Hero Banner — eye-catching header
2. Content section — Text Block, Media Block, or similar
3. Cards/Grid section — Service Cards, Media Block Group, etc.
4. Resources Banner — call-to-action at the bottom

Tip

You don’t need to memorize all block types. When adding a new block, CloudCannon shows you a list of available options with labels to help you choose.

Viewing Content Blocks

When you open a page in the Visual Editor:

• Each content block appears as a distinct section on the page
• Click on a block to select it — the sidebar shows its fields
• The sidebar lists all blocks under the Content Blocks list

Note

The Content Blocks list in the sidebar shows every block on the page in order from top to bottom. You can expand each one to see its fields.
