Cards

Overview

Cards are the items the Cards block lists. Each one has a title, an image, a Description, optional editor content, an optional Link, and Categories. Create them under Cards → Add New Card.

The admin menu name comes from Customizer Card Name Plural (default Cards).

Cards use the classic editor. Revisions are on.

Fields

• Title — the card's title; used in the listing unless you fill in Display Title
• Display Title — optional listing name
• Link — optional destination. The link title, if you set one, becomes the button label on the block
• Image — featured image, shown in the main column (not the sidebar)
• Description — the short summary (the excerpt, renamed for cards). Used when the block Content is Description
• Editor — longer copy. Used when the block Content is Content
• Categories — used by Filter, Restrict Cards, and Stratified

Editor basics

• Editor: classic (the block editor is off)
• No listing page: put a Cards block on a page
• Card pages: off unless Allow Archives is on. That setting gives each card its own URL and leaves cards out of site search
• URL slug: Customizer Slug (default cards)

The sidebar has Page Attributes (parent and order), but the Cards block always lists published cards A–Z by title.

Tips

• Only use the editor when the block's Content is set to Content. Otherwise Description is what shows.
• Use Display Title when the admin title is longer than the name on the card.
