Pick the section from the list. Only connected sections without a schedule are listed. If yours isn’t there, click Connect a new section. See Connect a theme section.
To tell it apart from other blocks, tick Add display title and type a Title. This is optional.
Pick the block you want and click Use this block. See Block Hero blocks for what each one shows.
On Create schedule, you can tick Add display title to give the block a Title. Then click Save in the save bar at the top of the page. The block’s page opens.
Add the block to your theme in the theme editor. Click Open theme editor on the block’s page.
On a Block Hero block’s page, the Setup Guide walks you through three steps:
Create your block
Add block to your theme, with an Open theme editor button
Create your first content
Steps tick themselves off as you finish them. Once all three are done, click Dismiss Guide. To hide it sooner, open the guide’s menu and choose Dismiss. Once dismissed, it is hidden on every block’s page.
Theme sections don’t show the Setup Guide. They’re already in your theme.
