The Page Builder
Purpose
Every page, post, and most settings screens build their layout from a vertical stack of blocks. The block system replaces a single rich-text editor with reusable, configurable components.
When to use this
Read this once before building your first page. After that the editor is largely discoverable.
How the editor works
- On a Page or Post, scroll to the Layout field.
- Click Add Block to choose a block type from the picker.
- Each block has its own fields — fill them in.
- Drag the handle on the left of a block to reorder it.
- Click the delete icon to remove a block, or the duplicate icon to clone it.
- Save the page. The order of blocks on the page is the order they render on the public site.
Block categories
- Hero blocks — Large above-the-fold sections with imagery and a call to action.
- Content blocks — Rich text, two-column splits, image-with-text, quotes.
- Media blocks — Image galleries, video embeds, image carousels.
- Data blocks — Data Tables, score tables, leaderboards (Golf Genius).
- Form blocks — Embedded forms from the Forms collection.
- Integration blocks — Golf Genius lists, social feeds, weather, course information.
- CTA blocks — Buttons, banners, newsletter signup.
The block picker shows the current list — new blocks are added by your nooQ admin from time to time.
Common tasks
- Reuse a layout: copy a Page, then change only the fields you need. There's no template system; copy-paste is the pattern.
- Hide a block temporarily: most blocks have a Hidden toggle in their settings. Faster than deleting.
- Preview: the Preview button (top right of the edit form) opens the page on the public site with draft content.
Gotchas
- Each block is independent — there's no inherited styling between blocks. If a colour looks different in one block, it's set per-block.
- Reordering is permanent — there's no undo. Save often.
- Large galleries are slow — over ~30 images in a gallery noticeably impacts the page render. Use folders instead and link to them.
