Button Group

Create compelling call-to-action buttons with customizable styling and link options

The Button block gives you two layers of control. First, you have Group Settings that apply to all buttons at once, ensuring they look consistent (like their size and alignment). Second, you have Individual Settings for each button, allowing you to customize its specific text, color, and link. This makes it easy to create a polished, professional set of actions for your visitors.

How to Add Buttons

Option 1: Drag and Drop

  1. Look for Buttons in the right sidebar

  2. Choose how many buttons you need:

    • 1 Button: A single call-to-action

    • 2 Button: Main action + secondary option

    • 3 Button: Multiple equal choices

  3. Drag your choice onto the page

Option 2: Type to Add

  1. Click where you want buttons

  2. Type /button

  3. Press Enter to add a single button

Adding More Buttons (After Initial Creation)

You have two ways to add more buttons (up to 3 total):

Quick Add:

  • Look for the '+' button that appears to the right of your existing buttons

  • Click it to instantly add a new button

  • This only appears when you have less than 3 buttons

From Manage Items:

  • Click on the button container area (not on a specific button)

  • Select "Manage Items" from the toolbar

  • Click "+ Add New Item"

Customizing Your Buttons

For All Buttons in Your Set

Click anywhere on your button set (not on a specific button) to see these options:

How many buttons?

  • Add buttons using the '+' icon or "Manage Items" (3 maximum)

  • Remove buttons two ways:

    • From Manage Items: Click the trash icon next to any button

    • From individual button: Click the button, then click trash in its toolbar

  • Drag buttons up/down to reorder them in Manage Items

Where should they appear?

  • Left: Start from the left side

  • Center: Centered on the page

  • Right: Aligned to the right side

What size should they be?

  • Small: Subtle, space-saving buttons

  • Medium: Standard size (recommended)

  • Large: Bold, attention-grabbing buttons

For Each Individual Button

Click directly on a button to customize it:

Button Text

  • Type your call-to-action (30 characters max)

  • Make it action-oriented: "Get Started" not "Submit"

  • The text box grows as you type

Button Colors

  1. Background Color:

    • Click the color picker

    • Choose from your brand colors

    • White buttons get an automatic border

  2. Text Color:

    • Pick a color manually, OR

    • Turn on "Auto select text color" (recommended)

    • Auto-select ensures your text is always readable

Where Should It Go?

Click the link icon to set up your destination:

  1. Website Links: Type the full URL (like https://example.com)

    • Opens in a new tab automatically

  2. Your Other Pages: Select from your published pages

    • Opens in the same tab

  3. Downloads: Link to PDFs or documents

    • Files you've uploaded to Resources

  4. Smart Links (Templates only): Use merge tags

    • Like {{LINKS.BOOK_MEETINGS}} for scheduling

Once linked, you can:

  • Click "Go to Link" to test it

  • Click "Remove Link" to start over

Add Tracking (Optional): You can add UTM parameters to any link for analytics:

  • Example: ?utm_source=email&utm_campaign=spring2024

  • If on the page templates, you can add variables as the utm_source values

  • Helps you track where button clicks come from

  • Works with all link types

Tips for Success

Writing Button Text That Converts

  • Be specific: "Get Your Free Guide" beats "Submit"

  • Add urgency: "Claim Your Spot Today"

  • Include value: "Start Saving 20%"

  • Use numbers: "Join 5,000+ Happy Customers"

Choosing Your Button Strategy

  • 1 Button: When you have one clear action (most effective)

  • 2 Buttons: Primary action + alternative ("Buy Now" + "Learn More")

  • 3 Buttons: Multiple equal options ("Basic" "Pro" "Enterprise")

Design That Works

  • Use contrast: Make buttons stand out from the page

  • Stay consistent: All buttons in a set should be the same size

  • Think mobile: Buttons stack vertically on phones

  • Give them space: Don't crowd buttons against other content

Where to Place Buttons

  • After benefits: Once you've explained the value

  • Above the fold: At least one button visible without scrolling

  • At decision points: Where visitors are ready to act

  • Repeat on long pages: Every 2-3 sections

Common Questions

Can I have more than 3 buttons? No, each button set holds a maximum of 3 buttons. If you need more options, consider using multiple button sets or a different approach like a menu.

Why can't I see my button on the live page? Check that you've added both text and a link. Buttons without links won't appear to visitors.

How do I make buttons the same width? Buttons automatically size based on their text. For uniform widths, use similar text lengths in each button.

Can I use images in buttons? No, buttons are text-only. For image-based calls-to-action, use an Image block and add a link to it.

  • Link: For links within sentences

  • Image: For visual calls-to-action

  • Video: For videos

  • Embed: For third-party embeddings
