A custom block is a titled box of your own words on the customer's Home — "Please note before moving day", "Your happiness is guaranteed", the associations you belong to. Each block shows only to the customers you choose.
Add one
- Open Settings › Customer experience › Custom blocks.
- Press Add block (Add custom block).
- Type the Block Title and the words. Tick Hide title to show the words without a title.
- Save.
Choose who sees it
Open the block's Block settings:
- By service type — tick the Service types.
- By order status — tick the Order statuses (for example New, Can Book Online, Booked).
- By move type — tick the Move types.
- Show custom block in account — Shown or not. Off hides the block from every customer without deleting it.
- On the confirmation page — also show it there.
- Order — Lower shows first.
A block shows to a customer only when their move matches the ticked service type, status and move type.
Arrange and remove
- Move up / Move down swap a block with its neighbour and save at once.
- Delete block asks first — Yes, Delete.
Each card says Shown in account or Not in account.
Good to know
- The words can carry variables — the customer's name, the move date — filled in for each order.
- Hiding the Custom blocks element in the client portal designer hides every block from Home.
- The FAQ is better for questions everyone asks — see Questions and answers in the portal.
