4.3.6. Blocks in various pages

Certain blocks can only exist in certain page contexts. For example, the wall can only be placed on the profile page whereas a note can be used on any page. There are a number of page contexts which can have different blocks:

• portfolio page

• group page

• institution page

• site page

• profile page

• dashboard page

The following list shows in which contexts a specific block and therefore a specific artefact can be used. It also shows which blocks can be copied. The original idea came from Synergy Learning for Mahara 1.3.

Note

Blocks in a page that are copied from one user to another need to be checked for content accuracy and whether they can be retained as they are or need to be updated.

Blocks that display a * next to their check mark can be added to a group, institution, or site page and configured where possible. No content is displayed though when the page is viewed because user-specific content is required. The blocks can be added though to create better templates.
