Usage

This template allows you to display multiple pages or content blocks as inline-block "columns" on a page. This can be used to present content in a more space-efficient manner. It can be used to transclude content from other pages, display custom content, or a combination of both.

Syntax

Transclude another page

{{Blocks
| section1 = Section header 1
| page1    = Page to transclude 1
| section2 = Section 2
...
}}

Embed content directly in the template

{{Blocks
| section1 = Section header 1
| content1 = Wikitext content Section 1
| section2 = Section 2
...
}}

Parameters

sectionN (optional): The header text for the content block or transcluded page, where N is a number starting from 1 and incrementing for each new section.
pageN (optional): The name of the page to be transcluded, where N is a number starting from 1 and incrementing for each new page.
contentN (optional): The custom content to be displayed for the respective section, where N is a number starting from 1 and incrementing for each new content block.

Note that you must specify either a pageN or contentN for each section. If both are specified, the transcluded page will take precedence.
