Block Section Settings

Easy Content Builder uses Section Settings as a special block to determine your ideal layouts within a section:

NOTE: Mask color and Mask image fields are only available for the PRO plan. You can configure these fields normally in the Theme Editor; however, you need to upgrade your plan to apply them to the front end.

• You can define 1-column, 2-columns, 3-columns, or 4-columns layouts that are fully responsive (See multiple-column layout examples).
• You can add as many sections on a page as you want. In each section, you create a Section Settings block to control the layout for that specific section.  
• IMPORTANT NOTE: always keep the Section Settings at the bottom of the Content Blocks list.

Details of settings

From the Shopify theme editor, click on Section settings on the sidebar to view the details of settings.

(If you’re new to our Easy Content Builder, please refer to section Add App Sections and Add ECB Blocks for more details on how to create and edit a section or a block.)
