Getting started with Hub Sections
Understand what types of Sections you can use to build your Hubs
🧰 What You Will Need
A Membership Hub (Start plan or higher)What can I use this for?
Sections are distinct pieces of a page that groups related content together. Sections help organize layout and improve readability by breaking up the page into meaningful parts. You can build Sections for a welcome banner, a list of resources, and playlist of call recordings -- the options are infinite!
To add a new Section, head to your Hub Editor and select the page where you want to add your Section. From here, you can find ➕Add Section.
There are specific types of Sections you can create. Click on any Section type below to learn more about that Section:
- Content Sections are designed with content like videos and Playlists in mind. There are several kinds of Content Sections:
- Custom Layout Sections are generally more customizable than Content Sections are are great for stacking lots of different elements like images, videos, buttons, blocks of text, iFrame elements and more.
Feature Section
The Feature Section lets you highlight a Playlist, File, Page, URL, or allow your members to continue from where they left off in the last viewed file ("Continue Watching").
Feature Sections are great for giving lots of space to really important content. Their content progress feature makes them great for showing your members what percentage of a file or Playlist they've consumed.
Scroll Section
The Scroll Section lets you display your content in a single continuous horizontal flow. You can select between Playlist, Custom Cards and Recently Watched media scroll types and showcase them in a horizontal scroll.
Custom Cards are the most popular Scroll Sections as they can be used to stack files, Playlists, and external links in a Section that takes up minimum space. If you select Custom Cards, you'll have to click + Add Card and select your card type from the available options.
Grid Section
The Grid Section is very similar to the Scroll Section. The only difference with the Grid section is that it uses a vertical scroll instead of a horizontal scroll, which means that it takes up a lot more space in comparison to the Scroll Section.
Search Section
The Search Section allows your audience to search through videos or audio files from a curated selection of Playlists.
Each Hub automatically comes with a search bar in the Header, but the Search Section allows you to place additional search bars as needed.
Carousel Section
The Carousel Section combines the functionality of the Scroll Section with the Feature Section's appearance. Clicking + Add Slide allows you to select any combination of Media Files, Playlists, Hub Pages, or URLs and showcase them in a horizontal scroll.
Column Section
The Column Section allows you to combine text, images, icons, videos, embed codes and buttons in 1-4 Columns. The Column Section is the most customizable Section and comes with the most amount of styling choices.
Sidebar Section
The Sidebar Section allows you to create asymmetrical layouts. Sidebar Sections include the same types of elements available for the Column Sections.
