@concrete5 Yes, but I can’t figure out where the “more abstract” blocks are used eg Data Display. Encourage people to provide links in desc.
Ever not wanted to register for a website even though they make you? Check out http://bugmenot.com for UNs & PWs. They also have a FF add on
@sixeightmedia You should include URL’s of sites that use the Data Display block in the Add-on description and how they use it. #concrete5
Instead of using “footer_required” in #Concrete5 to insert GA tracking code, use the code found here: http://is.gd/fJ9fU It’s more semantic.
