Overview

Features:

- Use it as WYSIWYG
- Use paste (cmd+v) to insert any blocks in your column
- Use Drag'n'Drop to move contents from outside or inside a column block
- Customize **fieldsets** or **layouts** inside your blueprint in no time

fields:
  myblock:

[](#customization)

**Customize column block for a single block field**

Just extend the column block like this:

```
fields:
  myblock:
    label: Block content
    type: blocks
    fieldsets:
      - heading
      - text
      columns:
        extends: blocks/columns
        fields:
          layout:
            layouts:
              - "1/1"
              - "1/2, 1/2"
              - "1/4, 1/4, 1/4, 1/4"
            fieldsets:
              - heading
              - text
```

**Customize column block globally**

Copy `columns.yml` from `site/plugins/column-block/blueprints/blocks/`to `site/blueprints/blocks/` and edit it.

**Customize the output**

Copy `columns.php` from `site/plugins/column-block/snippets/blocks` to `site/snippets/blocks` and edit it.
