# Article Blocks

### Article buttons

The article buttons are how we create, edit and delete article blocks (email content) in the email.

Here is the breakdown of each button function<br>

Buttons will sit at the top right of the associated article.

1. Add a new article block. The article will be added underneath the current article.
2. Edit article. This will open the article editor to edit the content.
3. Copy article. This will copy the article and add it underneath the current article.
4. Delete article. Don’t be afraid of this button. You are only removing the content, not the ability to add that article again if needed.
5. Reorder articles. It doesn’t matter which article you click this button on; a list of all the articles will pop up and you can drag/drop them in the order you desire.

1. The first text field in the article block that has a value (This is what the field 'Article name' is for)
2. Layout type

### Layouts

When adding or editing an article, along the top of the dialogue box there is a dropdown to select the article layout type.

There are nine different layouts to choose from. The layouts will show different fields depending on what that layout requires.

### Filter

With each article, you can add a filter that will enable the article to only show if it matches that filter. The filter works the same way as mailout filters.
