Today your page gets a list.
A list is the tidy way to show four favourite things without writing four sentences.
By the end of the lesson your page will have:
- a heading for your list
- a list with four things in it
- the things in the order you mean
A list needs two kinds of block.
- The list block is the holder. It goes on the page.
- An item block is one thing in the list. It goes inside the list block.
Four things in your list means one list block and four item blocks.
Both of them live in the List group, not in Content.
Your list needs a name, so a reader knows what it is.
This is the block you need:
{"blocks": {"languageVersion": 0, "blocks": [{"type": "wp_heading", "fields": {"TEXT": "My Top Four", "COLOUR": "default", "SIZE": "normal", "ALIGN": "left"}}]}}- Click Content on the left.
- Scroll to the bottom of your blocks.
- Drag a heading block to the very bottom.
- Click its white box and type something like My Top Four.
Check: your new heading is at the very bottom of the page.

Now the list itself. Watch the page carefully when you add it.
This is the block you need:
{"blocks": {"languageVersion": 0, "blocks": [{"type": "wp_list"}]}}- Click List on the left.
- Drag a list block under your new heading.
- Click Your web page.
Check: nothing appeared. That is not a mistake and you have not broken anything. The list is there, but it is empty, and an empty list has nothing to show.
