(Someone may have changed or deleted these reusable blocks since the site launch.) Back to Top Use the block to stay consistent when adding a “Back to Top” link.

Back to Table of Contents Use the block to stay consistent when adding a “Back to Contents” link, if you have a Table of Contents design pattern you use on your site. Read more about Linking to Another Spot on the Page and see your site’s Content Editor Guide. Horizontal Spacer For creating horizontal space you can use the “Blank Column” reusable block. This has been useful in some edge case layouts. If you do use it, take extra care to review your content in medium and small screen sizes as it tends to add unwanted space. Site Specific Some sites have reusable blocks specific to them. Usually they provide specially designed features to be used throughout the site. For Web Team’s Use There are a half dozen blocks that are for the Web team’s use. They have been name-spaced with “Z_”. Please do not edit these blocks. Tip If you use a lot of reusable blocks, you may want to namespace them in order to group them together logically, for ease of management.
