Create a Section

  • So I am using several of the patterns, and when they are inputted to my page they are all “Sections” but if I add something it’s a “Container”….I’m confused as to what should be a “section” and what should be a “container” and how do I create a “Section”?

  • Hi there,

    Are you referring to the Section text beside the block in the block list view?
    If so, it’s just a name, you can click the 3 dots icon and rename the block.

    If you are asking about the section tag, it can be changed in the settings panel:

    As for the difference between sections and div (there’s no HTML tag called container). check this:

    Yes. So a “Section” is the exact same as a “Container”? If so why are there two names for the same thing?

    In this context, yes. The block name is originally Container, but it’s been manually renamed to Section for clarity, as its HTML tag is set to <section>.
