The Basics - Blocks

Blocks are the menus, polls and messages round the edge of the main content when you first view your site. There are many different blocks, and most modules have their own blocks provided in their distributions. There are three default block areas on most themes, left blocks, which show all the time, and right blocks and centre blocks, which only show, on the homepage. Certain themes may have different blocks positions through the Xanthia theme engine provided in the distribution.

To administer blocks, and see the different types available to you, click the administration link in the main menu and then choose blocks. There are many different types of blocks, and each has a different use. As you install third party modules, more blocks will appear in this menu for you to use, if you wish.

In PostNuke 0.8 each block must belong to a module.
