Aldrich: Inserting code

You can directly insert code (html, PHP) in your pages in a couple ways…

Including code at the page configuration level

Step 1: Create your code block

In this case, you’ll use a basic text block for your code. In the Add Content menu, select Block > Basic > Text Block.

Step 2: Add your code to the page configuration

Edit the desired page.

Select the Configure tab.

Select the php output.

In the CODE region, use the asset selector to select your code block.

You can leave the format selector empty

Including code within the page content

Step 1: Create your code block

In this scenario, you’ll need to create a Code block, which is different than adding code to a basic text block. In the Add Content menu, select Block > Code.

Use the Cascade wrapper tag field to auto-wrap your code in the desired passthrough or protect tag.

Select None if you want to divide the code up into different types of wrapper tags. In this case you’ll need to manually add the wrapper tags in the code yourself.

Enter your code in the Code data definition field.

Step 2: Add the code block to the page content

You can add the code block anywhere you’d add a layout or widget.
