How to Remove a Block or Section

4 steps ~2 min

Step 0 of 4 completed

Open the page in the editor

Go to Pages in the left-hand menu and click into the page you want to change.

Select the block you want to remove

Click anywhere on the block or section — for example an ethos block, a Heads’ welcome block, or a visit-us block.
A toolbar will appear above the block with a drag handle and a three-dot (options) menu.

Remove the block

Click the three-dot menu in the block’s toolbar.
Select Remove block.

Pro Tip

On a page with lots of blocks, open List View (the icon at the top-left of the editor) to see every block at once — this makes it much easier to find and select the right one before removing it.

Update the page

Click Update in the top-right corner to publish the change.
Check the live page to confirm the block is gone.

Warning

Removing a block only deletes it from this page — if you'd rather keep the content but hide it for now, consider moving it lower down the page instead of deleting it, since removed blocks can't be recovered once the page is updated.
