Below, we’ll take a look at how you can use each block and how you can customize them.

As a click action, you can choose:

You can also customize the button appearance by animating it and adjusting the border, background color, text color, transparency, and shadow.

The Custom block is a professional editor built into Taplink that allows you to create unique blocks with your own design. It works like popular graphic editors, but it’s easier, more convenient, and available directly in Taplink. 

The Custom block allows you to bring ideas of any complexity to life, including a creative hero section, your advantages with custom layouts, unique link designs, etc.

You can create a block from scratch or choose one of 90+ ready-made templates.

To create a block, you can use the following elements:

All elements are arranged on a modular grid. You can freely move them within the grid, resize them, and layer them on top of each other.

You can also fine-tune the parameters of each individual element. For example, the Shape element includes settings for fill, border, rounding, shadow, blur, transparency, and click action.

The FAQ block helps address frequently asked questions, reducing the number of requests and making communication with visitors easier.

You can also use it to compactly display extensive information. For example, you can list your work process stages, advantages, or cooperation details. Visitors will only see the headings and can expand specific items if necessary.

In the block design tab, you can configure the appearance of each element in detail, including expand icons, questions, answers, and the background for both expanded and collapsed questions and answers.

The Media and text block helps display information in a clear and structured way. With this block, you can neatly display competitive advantages, customer testimonials, quotes, introduce your team, and more.

The Messaging apps block allows you to add buttons that lead to a chat with you in any of the 10+ supported messaging apps.

If necessary, you can set up a message template. This way, the text will automatically appear in the customer’s input field when they open the chat. This helps them speed up and simplify communication with you.
