What are Elements?

Elements are the fundamental building blocks of your Composer pages. Learn more about how elements work in the article, "Understanding elements" and read about each of the 5 tabs in the element library: Standard, Module, Layout, Social, and Shared.

With the Board element, you can create a directory listing of boards in a particular folder in a list or grid format, or display details about a single board.
