Managing content blocks in Site Creator
This guide concerns content blocks, which are one of the most important elements of Infomaniak's Site Creator.
They are what will allow you to easily create content on your pages.
There are all kinds of them, separator, price list, site map, simple text or image blocks, etc., generally preconfigured to make it easier for you to get started.
Adding a content block
To access Site Creator:
- Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) from a web browser like Brave or Edge
- Click on the icon in the top right corner of the interface (or navigate through the left side menu, for example)
- Choose Hosting (Web & Domain universe)
- Click on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table
- Click on Site Creator in the left side menu
- Click on Customize my site
Once in Site Creator:
- In the left side menu, click on the Content button - the list of blocks appears
- Choose the desired category on the left, then the desired content on the right
By clicking on the desired content, you make it appear on the page you were editing.

Editing a content block
Each editable element of the content block will be highlighted when you move your mouse over it. Simply click on one of these elements to start editing.
In addition, you can edit the HTML code (recommended for advanced users only) if you need more control over any content block; this allows, for example, to insert HTML code for Infomaniak's Newsletter subscription.
You can also delete certain elements from your content blocks: when editing text, there is the "right arrow" button that displays more options and the Delete button:
To edit an image, click on it and a new window will appear. At the bottom, there is the Save button on the right and the red Delete button on the left.
Creating a custom content block
In the left sidebar, under the content that can be added to your page, you will find a button to Design a content block.
All the elements that make up the blocks are arranged on the left. You can drag them to your custom block to design your ideal block. This will be inserted into your page by clicking on Apply changes at the bottom of the page.
