Content Blocks are the foundational elements you use to build and structure your Thrive platform's main landing page. They're customisable content containers that automatically populate with dynamic, relevant learning materials based on the criteria you set.
Instead of manually linking every piece of content, a Content Block lets you feature entire categories of content – from the latest resources to the most popular videos.
Content Blocks serve two critical purposes:
Site Structure: They allow administrators to create a customised, engaging layout using the site builder.
Dynamic Curation: They automatically curate content for the end-user based on their role, team, or activity.
There are six block types to choose from:
Latest: Shows the most recently added content
Recommended: Shows content matched to the user's profile and interests
List: Lets admins select and order specific content
Trending: Shows the most popular content, based on views, likes, comments, and shares
Essential: Shows content assigned to an audience, such as mandatory training
People: Shows experts and collaborators related to the user's interests
Note:
For the full breakdown of layout, filter, and visibility options for each type, see Homepage Block Types. If you're looking for inspiration when naming your blocks, see Homepage Block Examples.
By configuring these blocks, you ensure every user sees timely, relevant, and engaging content as soon as they log into Thrive.
