Block Of Text I can Manage/Update Centrally For a Bunch of Posts

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I would like to add a section of text (header with couple paragraphs) in multiple blog posts. I would also like to be able to update the text from time to time. Is there a way to do this with a code block and some custom coding? I don't believe there is a native Squarespace feature that can perform this task.

Not really. I'm trying have a section of text (text block) that I can insert into multiple posts but manage the contents of that text block centrally. That way if I need to update the text, I don't have to go back to every post and re-update them all. 

I can't place this in the footer, because (1) it will show on every blog post and (2) I need it in the middle of the post.

Putting blocks in the footer to be used in other locations is a common technique to do what you want. You then use CSS to hide bits in the footer and then some CSS and/or JavaScript to move things into place.

Please see Blocks Boilerplate.

Let us know how it goes.
