Notes on the ways to add a block.

Cover block

This is a paragraph block inside a column block.

After you add a column block you can choose a layout, this one is 33%, 33%, 33%

You can then add blocks inside each column.

In this example we have a cover block, as series of paragraph blocks and a shortcode block that uses the display Posts plugin to list the block pages.
