Pages 

Your page contains blockscolumns, and elements. In terms of hierarchy, pages contain blocks, blocks contain columns, and columns contain elements.

There’s no limit to the number of pages that can be added to a Foleon Doc. However, we recommend keeping Foleon Docs between 5 and 10 pages for optimal performance. With Foleon, you can create interactive, engaging, and highly effective content. Read our article Recommended content size to learn more.

⚠️ We don't recommend creating more than 30 pages, as it has a negative impact on the performance of your content.

Columns

Each block contains up to seven columns with your content. Columns can be resized by dragging their edges to adjust the width within the 24-compartment grid. To add columns in a block, click the +Add column icon below the Purple block settings bar.

⚠️ You can only add columns in the Content Studio, not in the Content BuilderLearn here what the difference is.

When adding columns to your block, you can’t always have them with an equal width. The grid has 24 compartments, which means you can have 2, 3, 4, or 6 equal columns by duplicating the column. This also means that having 5 or 7 columns with an equal width is not possible.
