Special Purpose Blocks

Breadcrumbs Block
If you're using one of the header blocks that doesn't provide "breadcrumbs" (a list of links showing the user where this page is in relation to the home page of your site), you should probably add a Breadcrumbs Block near the top of your page, as shown above.
This block is currently available within the Centered One Column layout block, and in the main section of a Left Sidebar layout block.
Publish Date Block
The Publish Date block can either show the day the page was first published or the day it was last updated. This block is styled like the dates in News Articles, and is mainly intended for use on site news articles, though it can be used elsewhere.
This block is currently available within the Centered One Column layout block, and in the main section of a Left Sidebar layout block, as well as the Right Sidebar layout used for news articles.
Quote Block
If you are using the 'image' button in the RichText editor, you are probably doing it wrong.
Accordion Block
The accordion block is for use in building FAQ pages. You can put your questions in the "title" field and the answers in the "content" field. Many users try to use the block to put a ton of content in a small space, but this has rarely been effective. We generally recommend reserving this block exclusively for FAQ pages.
Because it hides content from the user.
Unless they have toggled each of the sections open before they hit "Print", they will only see the questions, and not the answers.
The Accordion Block is available in the main content sections of the Left and Right Sidebar layouts, in the Centered One Column layout, and in both sides of the Two Column Layout block.
In all cases, please check that your questions are not so long that they overflow the gray background when viewed on phones and tablets.
WuFoo, JotForm, and iFrame Blocks
We directly support WuFoo & JotForm, and other embeds generally work through use of our generalized iFrame block. These blocks are not available by default, so you must email templates@caltech.edu with which one you'd like to be enabled on your site.
If you have a WuFoo or JotForm form, we will enable our block that is for the appropriate service. The block will need only the the appropriate url to function (no script tag nor iframe tag are required).
If you have embed code from another service, though, we will enable the iFrame block and you can insert the entire iframe tag into that block.
Statistics Block
If you have a few very splashy statistics you want to convey to your audience, the Statistics Block may be a good choice. However, as you can see in the example below, the blocks demand a number followed by a short, pithy description of that number. If your content can not be condensed to fit within those constraints, you will need to choose another way to convey this information.
The Statistics Block is only available at the top level of the Interior and Home pages.
