Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Blocks: Reusable Content, Shortcodes & Site Variables

Edit the source block under Blocks. Every placement using its shortcode or native builder element displays the updated published content.
Yes. Use the native Block element in a supported builder or place a shortcode such as [block id="42"] in a module that processes WordPress shortcodes. See the builder guide.
Store a value once and use its token, such as {{blocks:phone}}, inside your blocks, popups or banners. Enable "resolve variables everywhere" to use tokens in regular content and supported widget or builder text too. Read the site variables guide.
Yes. Export your blocks and variables from Import / Export, then import the JSON file on the other site. Matching blocks are kept unless you choose to overwrite them. See the import and export guide.
The block stops appearing on the public site. You can restore it from the Trash view. Draft, pending and private blocks also stay out of public shortcode output.
Visit the Blocks guide or contact the team. Read our privacy policy.
