Types of
content blocks
Basic information
The content of pages is divided into "Sections". Those sections can have different background colors and contain all single elements, called "Blocks". The margin between blocks within a section is always the same and smaller than the margin between different sections.
There are basically 2 different types of sections, each one with a style variation. So we have 4 different types of sections. See how they look like on the sections page.
For every section there are the following content blocks to choose from:
- Heading
- Lead
- Heading with lead
- Text (extendable with sidebar)
- Quote
- Fact box
- Icon teaser
- Downloads
- Shortcode
- Form
- Image
- Image slider
- Content slider
- Teaser boxes
- Teaser columns
- Text with background image
- Counter
- Button
- Teaser news/blog
- Donation widget
- CTA: Image & Donation Box
- CTA: Image & Donation Box (Wages)
- CTA: Image
- Social sharing
- Petition: Last supporters
Heading
This element is simply a headline. It can be styled in three different ways:
Heading - H1
Heading - H2
Heading - H3
Lead
Basically this block is just a text with a larger font size. It can be used e.g. for intros.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
This is "Heading with lead"
The element combines the elements "heading" and "lead" into one. The only difference to the single elements is the (smaller) margin between the headline and the lead.
Text (extendable with sidebar)
This block is a WYSIWYG-editor and should be used for text. It can be extended by a sidebar – find out more about the sidebar version on the sidebar page.
This is the element “Text (extendable with sidebar), but without a sidebar. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, this is bold consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. This is italic and duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur linked text to first section sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
This is a video embedded within the textfield:
Commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
This is an H2 heading and now comes an unordered list:
- This is an unordered list
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco.
- Third item

Commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
This should be centered text.
This should be right aligned text.
This is an H3 heading and now comes an ordered list:
- This is an ordered list
