Blocks - Controlling Content in the Sidebars

Blocks
  • Blocks are boxes of content that may be rendered into certain regions of your web pages, for example, into sidebars. They are usually generated automatically by modules, but administrators can create blocks manually.
  • Only enabled blocks are shown.
  • You can position blocks by specifying which area of the page they should appear in (e.g., a sidebar). 
  • You can specify where within a region a block will appear by adjusting its weight.
  • You can configure the behavior of each block (for example, specifying on which pages and for what users it will appear) by clicking the 'configure' link for each block.
