Modules
Modules are reusable content blocks you can include anywhere you add content.
Create a module
Currently, there are three types of modules you can create: Galleries, Carousels and Code
After you have enabled the modules functionality (Customize > Extentions tab), simply create a new module as you would any other post type. Enter a unique and identifiable name (ie. Gallery - XYZ Event) then select the type of module. Fields specific to the module selected will then appear.
