Hi Support,
I want to add a largw parallax photo in the middle of a page and prevent to make it visible for editors. So created an element for it. Now I need to insert it at the right place, I can’t select a hook because none of the hook “places” apply. I want to add the element between other page content blocks. Isn’t is possible to insert the element as a short-code?
Thanks. -
Hi there,
A Block Element with a custom hook paired with a simple shortcode would work well for this. Here’s how:
1. Create your Block Element with the parallax content.
2. Under Hook, enter a custom hook name, e.g.
parallax_section.
3. Set the Display Rules to the page(s) where you want it to appear.
4. Add this snippet to your child theme’s
functions.php:add_shortcode( 'parallax_section', function() { ob_start(); do_action( 'parallax_section' ); return ob_get_clean(); } );5. In your page content, place
[parallax_section]wherever you want the parallax image to appear.Editors will only see the shortcode text in the block editor — the actual parallax content is managed in the Element, which they don’t have access to.
