This article will provide details on how to add/edit the Testimonials widget on a web page.
Before we begin, let’s cover a couple of key terms to help you better understand what they’re in reference to as you navigate your way through this article.
- Section(s): the total area, or section, for each widget.
- Container(s): blocks that organize and group content together within a section. Think of them like boxes that hold different parts of a webpage, such as text, images, or videos, keeping everything neat and orderly. For example, the Split Content/Image widget has a block designated for text and a block designated for an image/video; these separate blocks are containers, since they contain the content within the section.
To add this widget to a page,
open up the page in your Hive and click
+Add Section >> select
Testimonials >> then use the settings in the left-hand menu to make your edits, which we’ll cover in more detail below.
