Widgets (Global Widgets)

Widgets (also called components) are the content blocks that make up Branded Pages and Branded Sites — a heading, a button, a gallery, contact details, a downloadable file, and more. Every widget has a type and a theme (a Widget Theme that styles it), plus type-specific content.

The Global Widgets list holds widgets marked global — reusable blocks you can drop into any page, site or layout theme and edit once, everywhere. (Widgets created directly inside a single page or site live with that page or site.)

Common settings (every widget)

Alongside Internal Management (internal name, description, tags, workspace), every widget has:

  • Type — what the widget renders (see the list below). Required, and locked once created.
  • Theme — the Widget Theme applied to this widget (required).
  • Table of contents title — the text used for this widget in a page's on-page table of contents.
  • Set as global component — when on, the widget can be reused and edited from any resource.
  • Active — when off, the widget is hidden from visitors.

When you open a widget's editor you also get these shared tabs, next to a live preview:

  • Data — the widget's Title, Subtitle and Brief.
  • General styles — turn on Override general styles to hide the header or body, reorder them, or set text alignment for this widget, overriding its theme.
  • Icon — turn on Override icon to show/choose a specific icon for this widget.

Manual vs Brand Asset. Many widgets offer a Source choice: Manual means you enter or upload the value inline; Brand Asset (or Brand asset collection for folders) means you reuse a managed item from the Brand Vault, so it stays in sync everywhere.

Widget types

A banner/hero image at the top of the widget. Choose a Source (Manual upload or Brand Asset) and provide the Upper image.

Button

A call-to-action button. Set the URL (required) and a Target (same tab or new tab).

A tappable email contact. Provide an Email (Manual) or pick an email Brand Asset.

Phone

A tappable phone contact. Provide a Number with its country (Manual) or pick a phone Brand Asset.

Whatsapp

A WhatsApp chat link. Provide a Number and a Default Message that's pre-filled in the chat (Manual), or pick a phone Brand Asset.

An embedded map pinned to coordinates. Set Latitude and Longitude.

Rich formatted text written in Markdown (full editor with image/file attachments). This is the widget used for long-form content, including documentation-style pages.

A contact / vCard card. Add an Image, Name, Company, up to 3 Phones and up to 3 Emails.

PDF

An inline PDF viewer. Provide the File (Manual upload) or pick a PDF Brand Asset, and optionally enable Single page mode.

A list of styled link tiles. Each link has a URL, optional Tooltip, Target, an Icon (built-in or a custom uploaded image), and Background / Font / Border colors.

Asset Download

A downloadable file or folder bundle. Choose a Source (a single Brand Asset or a Brand asset collection), pick the Asset, and optionally show a Preview image.

Color Palette

A swatch palette with copyable color codes. Use Manual colors (each with a Color, Name and Brief) or pull from a color Brand asset collection.

Embed

Arbitrary embedded content (third-party iframe/embed code). Paste the Embed Code, pick an Aspect ratio, and adjust the Padding if needed.

Audio

An inline audio player. Provide the File (Manual upload) or pick an audio Brand Asset.

The list, sharing and deleting

The list shows each widget's name, type, whether it's in use, and sharing indicators. You can share a widget with other workspaces (shared widgets are read-only for the recipient), replicate it, and filter by usage, tags or trashed state. A widget that is in use can't be deleted until it's detached. Trashed widgets open read-only; restore to edit, or force-delete to remove permanently.
