Reusable Global Modular Blocks

Overview

Reusable Blocks are document-level modular content groups that can be referenced from page content. Update once, then propagate changes wherever the reusable block is used.

Why it matters

This is ideal for repeated editorial units such as campaign banners, signpost sections, legal notices, or evergreen CTAs.

How Lucidity implements it

Lucidity defines a dedicated config.reusableBlock document type with:

• internal title and site scoping
• optional internal image for CMS identification
• a required modular content field powered by the standard modular block system

In the web layer, reusable content is handled as a modular outer block type (outer.reusable-content) so it fits the same rendering pipeline as other sections.

Authoring model

Editors manage reusable block documents centrally, then reference them in page-level modular content. This balances governance with composition flexibility.

Governance tips

Treat reusable blocks as shared assets. Apply naming conventions and ownership rules so teams can safely reuse them without ambiguity.
