Heading

Introduction​

The Heading module in Builderius is a fundamental element used to create headings on your website or application. As a semantic container, the Heading module represents different levels of headings, ranging from the most important (H1) to the least important (H6). With the Heading module, you can easily structure and highlight content, providing visual hierarchy and organization to your pages. Headings are among the most important elements on your page both in terms of Accessibility and Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

When you insert the Heading module into the canvas, it automatically generates an <h1> HTML tag by default, which represents the highest level of heading. However, you can customize the HTML heading level from H1 to H6 as needed. Headings 1-6 should be used to denote the structure and relationships on the page and should not be confused with design decisions on what the size of its text should be.

Standard Module Settings​

The Heading module shares standard settings with other Builderius modules, making it easy to adapt and use across your designs. Once you learn how to use Heading you know how to use other modules as well. These settings are divided into two main sections: Data Settings and CSS Settings. Let's explore each in detail.

Data Settings​

Module data settings

Content​

The Content section allows you to define the textual content to be displayed inside the Heading module. You can enter simple static text, utilize HTML markup (with autocomplete), and use dynamic data template tags to display information from the WordPress database, JSON, or other data source. Remember, you can nest child modules within this module to create complex content structures.

HTML Tag​

The HTML Tag setting empowers you to select an HTML tag from the provided drop-down list or create a custom HTML element by entering any string of letters (follow the syntax rules).

HTML Attributes​

In this section, you can add various attributes to the module's HTML code. These attributes enable you to label or modify the behavior of the module. There are three types of attributes you can work with:

Module html attributes

Classes​

Add multiple classes to apply styles (e.g., color, size, spacing) to multiple modules simultaneously.

ID​

Assign a unique ID name to identify this module distinctively. IDs are commonly used for in-page linking or establishing relationships between different modules on the page.

Custom Attributes​

Create custom attributes, such as aria- type attributes for screen reader accessibility or data- type attributes to extend module functionality. You can define both the attribute name and its value.

Conditions​

The Conditions section allows you to set server-side conditions for displaying the Heading module. These conditions are processed before the page is generated, meaning that if the conditions are not met, the module will not appear on the page. Conditions are a powerful way to customize what content appears based on various factors. For more information on conditions, refer to our documentation on conditions.
