Add Biolink Block

Biolink pages are created using a series of Blocks. Each Block represents an element on the page, such as titles, images and (of course), links. You can have a number of blocks on your page based on your Plan.

To add a new Block, click the “Add Block” button at the top-right of the list. This button is visible above the Settings and Blocks menus.

This will bring up a window where you can choose which type of Block you want. You can also search at the top if you don’t see the Block you’re looking for.

A new window will pop up asking you for the basic information necessary for the Block. For example, a Link Block, which adds a link button to the page, requests a Destination URL for the link and a Name, which will be what is read on the button. Click “Submit” when you’ve entered your information.

After the Block is created, you can edit more details. Continue to Editing Biolink Blocks.

Editing Biolink Blocks

From the Biolink pages, click “Blocks” to see the list of Blocks currently on your page. The order the blocks appear on the list is the same order as they appear on your page, top to bottom.

1.        This icon allows you to rearrange your Blocks on the page. Click and drag on this icon allows you to move a Block up or down on the list, which moves it up or down on the page in kind.

2.        An icon associated with the type of Block. Hovering your mouse over this icon will give you the name of the Block type.

3.        The name of this Block. Clicking on this name will allow you to edit the Block. Continue to Editing a Block.

4.        A subheader showing additional information about the Block, such as the destination URL for Link Blocks.

5.        Statistics for the Block. For Link Blocks, this shows the number of clicks generated. Clicking this icon will take you to the stats page for the Block, showing more detail.

6.        Toggle to activate or deactivate the block. Inactive Blocks will not appear on the page.

7.        Submenu with additional options for editing.

8.        Edit this Block. Continue to Editing a Block.

9.        View: This will open up your Biolink Page so you can see it in action. 

10.   Duplicate: You can create a duplicate of this Block with the same information. It will appear at the bottom of your Block list.     

11.   Delete: Permanently remove the Block from your page. Unlike deactivating, this cannot be undone. Make sure you really want to remove it before you click this.

Editing a Block

To edit a Biolink Block, click on its name in the Blocks list. The exact settings that can be changed are different for each Block, but usually affect how the Block appears on the page or how users interact with it. When you are finished editing, remember to click “Update” at the bottom to save your changes.
