Blocks

The term "blocks" is used to refer to block-like elements you can add to posts, such as paragraphs and blockquotes. Paragraphs are the basic blocks. You can create a paragraph by pressing Enter anywhere inside the editor.

To add other blocks, use the slash command: type slash (/) in a new line to open the blocks list. Use the mouse or up/down arrows to navigate through the list.

Hyvor Blogs supports the following blocks.

Headings

HB supports headings from <h1> to <h6>. The slash command only provides two options: Large (h2) and Medium (h3). Other headings can be added using Markdown syntax in a new line.
