Chimera: Block Content Particle
Your Guide to Using Particles in Chimera for WordPress
Introduction
The Block Content particle is a great way to create a clean and simple content block with images and text.
Here are the topics covered in this guide:
Configuration
Main Options
These options affect the main area of the particle, and not the individual items within. For example, if you want to display content that includes a title, headline, image, and link you can do so here, but if you want to display numerous individual items, each with their own text, images, and/or links, you can do so using the Block Items collection feature.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Particle Name | Used for backend organization and does not appear on the front end. |
| CSS Classes | Enter any CSS class(es) you wish to have apply to the particle. |
| Title | Enter a title for the particle to appear on the front end. |
| Icon | Select an icon to appear in the particle. |
| Image | Set a main image that appears separate from any Block Item images. |
| Headline | Enter a headline you want to appear on the front end. |
