Button links

A row or column of links styled as buttons, commonly used in your footer.

The Button Links block adds a set of links styled as buttons, each able to take a button style from your theme and pair with an icon. It works anywhere on a page but is most often added to your footer for prominent actions like "Book Tickets" or "Donate". For plain text links instead, use the Navigation block.

Content

Everything for the block lives in the Content tab.

  • Heading — an optional label shown above the buttons. Leave it empty for buttons on their own.
  • Button Links — the list of buttons. Add at least one; each one is added and reordered here.

Each button

Every button uses the standard link options, and both a button style and an icon are available for each one:

  • Label — the text the visitor sees and clicks. An Icon picker sits beside it for an optional icon.
  • A choice between Internal link (point at one of your own pages, events, or other content) and Custom URL (type any web address). Internal link is selected by default.
  • Current Tab or New Tab — where the link opens. Current Tab is the default.
  • A button style drawn from your theme. Left unset, it uses your theme's first available style.

On multi-site setups, an internal link also offers a Site option to point the link at a specific site.

At least one button is required. For the full link picker and the reusable button styles your theme provides, see Buttons and links.

Shared controls

Width, alignment, gap, and spacing come from the controls shared across blocks:

  • Layout — the block Width (Full Width or Page, Page by default), the Direction the buttons run (Horizontal by default, or Vertical for a stacked column), their Alignment (Left, Center, Right, or Space Between; Left by default), and the Gap between them (8px by default). See Layout controls.
  • Spacing and padding — the space around the block. Padding and margin start at 0. See Spacing and padding.
  • Colour scheme — set the block's colour scheme, or override its background and text colours directly. See Colour scheme.

Example

A box office wants "Book Tickets" and "Donate" buttons side by side in the footer:

Add the first button

In the Content tab, add a button and set its Label to Book Tickets. Optionally pick an Icon to sit beside it.

Point it at the right place

Choose Internal link and select your ticketing page, or choose Custom URL for an external box-office address. Pick a prominent button style from your theme.

Add a second button

Add another button labelled Donate, point it at your donation page, and give it a quieter, secondary button style so the two read as a primary and secondary action.

Arrange the row

Leave Direction on Horizontal so the buttons sit side by side, and adjust the Gap if you want more space between them.
