FAQs

What is the Acquia Cohesion hidden region?

The Acquia Cohesion hidden region is a useful holder for blocks that you want to render using the Acquia Cohesion block element.

If I use a Drupal block in a component, can I expose the block settings in the component form?

No. You cannot expose block forms or settings in Acquia Cohesion component forms.

Can I use Drupal blocks on the layout canvas?

Yes. You can add Drupal blocks to the layout canvas using the block element.

Can I filter the list of blocks in the block element?

No. Drupal provides the list of blocks to the block element.

Can I revision my templates, styles and components?

Yes. You should revision your Acquia Cohesion assets like other configuration using a service like Git.

Why is my Cohesion Layout Revisions table so large?

Cohesion layout revisions are created at the same time as node revisions, but not always deleted at the same time.

How can I prevent the revisions table for Cohesion Layout from growing too large?

Use the "Node Revision Delete" contributed module to manage your node and associated Cohesion layout revisions.

How can I remove orphaned Cohesion Layout Revision entities?

Use the tools included in the "Entity Reference Revisions" contributed module.

Can I apply custom styles to content in the WYSIWYG?

Yes. As long as you are using the Cohesion text format you will see two new menus ‘Element styles’ and ‘Inline styles’. Use these to apply custom styles.

Why, when I add a block quote via the WYSIWYG, is the text size different to what I’ve set in my Block quote style?

The WYSIWYG (ckeditor) adds a paragraph tag around the text within the block quote. This causes it to inherit the text size of your paragraph base style.
