Block
A block is a single piece of content that makes up a page or post — a paragraph, a heading, an image, a button, a table. You build a page by stacking blocks, and each one has its own settings in the sidebar.
The block editor is the standard way of editing pages and posts in WordPress. It replaced the older TinyMCE editor, which worked more like a word processor.
Common blocks
Paragraphs, headings, images, videos, buttons, quotes, tables, columns, spacers and page breaks. A shortcode can also be placed in a block.
Church Admin blocks
Every Church Admin feature that can be displayed publicly has its own block — as well as a shortcode and an Elementor widget, so you can use whichever suits how you build your site.
The blocks are the easiest of the three to work with. Every option appears as a menu item in the sidebar rather than something you have to remember and type, and you can see the effect of each change straight away. They also insert Church Admin content securely, without you handling any code.
