Adding to Layout Builder

Exercise: Add the 50/50 teaser block to a new layout page

The good news is we already have a few demo pages that include the 50/50 teaser (e.g. Homepage), so you don't have to add a new page but we will anyway just so you know how an editor would place the block.

Steps:

  1. Go to the "Create content" page to find the "Layout" content type.
