Content Blocks

Content Blocks

Content Blocks, also known as Widgets, are different sections of content that display on your homepage.  There are several content blocks that are built into PrismWeb and cannot be directly edited, although certain properties of them can be customized.  Other pre-programmed content blocks may be included with your PrismWeb template. 

Note:  Additional information about creating, the built-in content blocks and ones that come with the templates can be found in the Appendix of the PrismWeb for PrismCore Users Manual.

Rearranging Content Blocks

Content blocks can rearranged into any order you wish on your homepage, although some layouts may work better than others. 

Content blocks are displayed in the order that they are listed in the default.asp page code.  To rearrange the order of the blocks on the homepage, change the order of the content block #INCLUDE lines. 

Hiding Content Blocks

A content block can be removed from the homepage by deleting the #INCLUDE line for that block in the code for default.asp.   However, sometimes you may wish to temporarily remove a content block, and show it again on the homepage at a later date.  A simpler way to hide a content block is to insert a space character in between the # and INCLUDE in the code.  For example, if you want to temporarily hide the Best Sellers block, you would insert a space so the code would look like this:

<!-- # INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/innerweb/v4.0/i_home_bestsellers.asp" -->

When you need to show the block again, remove the space.
