Mark - please raise a new thread if you have questions. We can only really deal with one issue per thread.

Drew,

Ok to recap on your question what am I trying to do…

I'm trying to do pages in a more modular way, rather than each page having regions/fields just for that page I'm creating reusable templates (blocks) that can be used by the customer and reordered etc. So if they have a certain type of content then they just select a block and add the content (much like your Blocks video):

  • Image thumb
  • Bullet list
  • Heading and Text
  • Icon and paragraph
  • Two column text
  • Big image
  • Key features
  • Brand logos

There are always common patterns or types of content, so was trying to not reinvent the wheel each time. Some of this content may well be useful to use elsewhere on the site as custom content.

Doe that make sense, or would there be a better approach?

Thanks Mark
