A synced pattern keeps shared blocks consistent wherever that pattern is used. Updating it can change several pages at once.
Steps
- Select the blocks to reuse, open their options menu, and choose Create pattern.
- Give the pattern a descriptive name and enable the synced option when all instances should remain linked.
- Insert the saved pattern through the block inserter on another page.
- Before editing an instance, decide whether the change should apply everywhere or only in that location.
- For a one-off variation, detach the pattern where permitted before editing. Review shared changes in the save confirmation.
Check the result
Check multiple pages using the pattern after a shared update, or confirm that a detached variation left other instances unchanged.
Before you continue
Do not place page-specific prices, dates, or names into a shared pattern without considering every location. A locked pattern may not allow detachment. Keep clear names so editors can distinguish shared content from an ordinary group of blocks.
