About the Content Block Element
Reuse any existing Content Page as a section within another page
Welcome to the Content Blocks tutorial—one of the most powerful features in the Element Library!
The whole concept of Safari Portal is that even though everything you plan is custom and bespoke, you are likely often using the same components over and over, across different trips. Safari Portal makes it easy to save those components and layer them together in flexible and creative ways. The Content Block functionality is a huge piece of this.
Whether you're building a content page, Lookbook, Itinerary, or Guest Portal, Content Blocks allow you to seamlessly insert pre-existing sections or "snippets" from your Content Library into the page you're working on. This streamlines your workflow and ensures consistency across all your projects.
Key Benefits of Using Content Blocks
- Reusability: Everything in your Content Library can be re-used as a Content Block. Once you've created any Content Page, you can reuse it across different pages and proposals. No need to rewrite or reformat common sections.
- Flexibility: Content Blocks can include text, images, videos, maps, PDFs, and any other elements you’ve saved. You can layer Content Blocks together to create customized content very quickly.
- Time-Saving: By pulling in pre-built content, you dramatically reduce the time spent on repetitive tasks.
- Consistency: Content Blocks ensure that the same sections are formatted and presented in the exact same way every time.
Step-By-Step Instructions
- From the inline editor of any Content Page, Proposal, or Guest Portal, hover between sections to launch the Element Library.
- Select the Content Block Element.
- In the dropdown, search for the relevant Content Page.
- Once selected, the Content Page will be inserted into your current page.
- It will be placed wherever your cursor is.
- After inserting the Content Block, you can modify or update it to suit the specific needs of your current page.
Tips & Tricks 💥
- The Content Block element will pull in only pull in the content from the right-hand side of the page. It will not pull in the primary image on the left.
- If you plan to use a Content Page exclusively as a Content Block (and not as a standalone page), you don't need to worry about adding photos or text on the left.
- Content Blocks only pull in the first section of Property Pages.
- Use content blocks to store Emergency Contact information for suppliers and DMCs, making it easy to retrieve and share with clients when needed or quickly add pre-written airport instruction to any page.
