Psst! What鈥檚 a Standard Block?

Intrepid Beta Testers may have noticed something new in their list of blocks called the 鈥淪tandard Block.鈥 If you鈥檝e been wondering what this is, here's the聽scoop!

Standard-Block

Currently, you create a regular block by going to Structure > Blocks > Add block. With the intro of the Standard Block, this is going to change. Why? Because we鈥檝e seen how great the new template blocks are in Beta so the same module that鈥檚 used for these blocks is going to replace the regular blocks that you鈥檙e used to.

With the Standard Block, you can customize your regular block more efficiently by setting the View Mode to full, half, or third 鈥 just like you do with the other template blocks in Beta.

So what鈥檚 being worked on to get the Standard Block ready for wide release? One thing we鈥檙e looking at now is how to migrate content from the existing regular blocks into Standard Blocks. This will be a seamless process. We also know that you want blocks to be translatable so we鈥檙e working on that too. What a busy summer it鈥檚 been!

Since all regular 鈥榣egacy鈥 blocks will become Standard Blocks down the road, why not get a head start? As Beta Testers, you can jump in and create new blocks using Standard Blocks. These blocks won鈥檛 need to be converted in future and you can easily customize their layout widths with the full, half, and third options. Create a Standard Block by completing the fields as you normally do and once the block is created, find it under Structure > Blocks to configure the page region and page visibility as usual. Easy peasy!
