Issue/Request:

is it possible (via delta/context, or other) to add or duplicate regions and have them applied to only certain pages in a site? for example, to duplicate the header second and preface regions so the flow would be:

header second

preface

header second

preface

or, is it possible to—in the preface region 1, 2,3—to have a block span preface 1 and 2, nothing in preface 3; then next row a regular block in each of 1, 2, and 3?

Hi Eamonn,

We wouldn’t be able to do this as it would require rewriting the markup and overwriting the theme’s template files, so we recommend using CSS for display/format needs.

Eamonn Edge on August 13, 2018:

is there assistance for doing so? or is there a preferred/advised way (or a file example to follow) for creating this CSS?

There isn’t really a preferred way and we don’t have documentation for it, it would just be styling changes - but not affecting the regions.
