Flux: Block Content Particle
Your Guide to Recreating Elements of the Flux Demo 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 |
|---|---|
| CSS Classes | Enter the CSS class(es) you want to use in the content of the particle. |
| Title | Enter the title of the particle, as it will appear on the front end. |
| Icon | Set the icon that appears next to the title. |
| 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. |
| Description | Enter the text you wish to have appear as the description for the particle. This text appears below the title and headline. |
| Button Label | Customize the text you want to have appear in the link button. |
| Button Link | Customize the link you want the link button to go to. |
| Button Classes | Add CSS class(es) you would like to have apply to the button. |
| Target | Set the target for the button. You can choose between Self which opens the link in the current tab or New Window which opens links in a new tab. |
NOTE: The CSS class
g-blockcontent-spacingis used in our demo to create spacing. If you are unhappy with the look of your particle, try this class.
