Sections Management

What Are Sections?

A section is a pre-designed building block for your website layout, serving as a ready-made template for common website components such as headers, footers, pricing tables, or contact forms. Using sections saves you time and effort compared to building every element individually.

  • The new section will immediately appear in the selected area. You can edit and add new elements to it to suit your needs.
