Model

Any block can be registered as a "model" and be reused anywhere in the site.
Any change in appearance or content provided to this model is reflected automatically to all elements built with this model, whatever their position in the site.

Be careful not to confuse with a style, which only uses the same appearance.

Create a model

Detach a block from its model

1) select the item.
2) click on the button "remove from model".

Manage the models

The main toolbar has a button to open a popup that allows to destroy or rename any model, draft or public.

Notes

Several warnings and special procedures avoid deleting or modifying a model unintentionally.

To change the appearance of a block without affecting the blocks that use the same model, you must first detach the selected block from the model. This block can be saved later as a model with the same name or a different name.

Open content areas

Each block contained in a model can be defined as a "free zone", that is to say, as having a content independent from the model.



Warning, it is better to have got serious Websico experience to use this feature.

To create a free zone first create a block within the model, consisting of any number of elements, then select the block and click on the corresponding button.  Changes within this zone will not be saved in the model, leaving the possibility of varying content depending on where the model is recalled.

Example

The framed model is used twice. A free contents area is between the two images, its composition is different in each case and can be changed without affecting the model.
