The Highlight block is a UniLink block that allows you to draw attention to a specific message, announcement, promotion, or piece of content using a visually distinctive style.
What is the Highlight Block?
The Highlight block is designed to make certain content stand out from the rest of your page. Think of it as a callout or spotlight — it draws the visitor's eye to something important, whether that is a limited-time offer, a key statistic, an award, a testimonial, or any message you want to ensure nobody misses. It is popular among e-commerce sellers promoting deals, creators announcing launches, and professionals sharing notable achievements.

How to Configure the Highlight Block
The Highlight block offers several customization options to make your message visually impactful:
- Highlight Text — Enter the main message you want to emphasize. Keep it short and punchy for maximum impact.
- Supporting Description — Add a secondary line of text to provide context or elaboration below the main highlighted message.
- Background Color or Style — Choose a contrasting color or gradient background to make the block visually distinct from surrounding content.
- Icon or Emoji — Optionally add a visual element alongside the text to reinforce the message or add personality.
- Call-to-Action Button — Include an optional button with a link inside the Highlight block to drive visitors toward a specific action.
- Border and Shape — Adjust the border style and corner radius to match your overall page design.
Best Practices for the Highlight Block
- Use the Highlight block sparingly. If everything is highlighted, nothing stands out. Reserve it for your single most important message on the page.
- Choose a background color that contrasts with your page background and aligns with your brand palette.
- Make the highlighted text action-oriented or urgency-driven, such as "Sale ends Sunday" or "Only 3 spots left."
- If using a call-to-action button inside the block, make the button label specific rather than generic, for example "Claim Discount" instead of "Click Here."
- Test the block on mobile to ensure the text remains readable and the layout does not break on smaller screens.
