Editorial Governance
Block governance, six ways
Give every team the right amount of freedom. From campaign content marketing can change at will, to disclosures only Compliance can touch, WordPress sets editing rules block by block, with no custom code.
The six examples below look finished on the live site. The difference shows up in the editor: open this page in the block editor and try changing each one.
At a glance
Six levels of control
Ordered from the most freedom to the least. Pick the level that matches who owns the content and how much risk a change carries.
| Example | Business use | Edit text | Change design | Move or delete |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Fully editable | Campaign promo | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| 2. Pinned in place | Banker contact strip | Yes | Yes | No |
| 3. Reorder only | Account opening steps | Yes | Yes | Reorder only |
| 4. Content only | Executive briefing invite | Yes | No | No |
| 5. Pattern overrides | Product offer card | Headline and button | No | Yes |
| 6. Fully locked | Regulatory disclosure | No | No | No |
Tier 1 · No locks
Freedom for marketing
The default. Editors have full control over words, design, and placement.
Example 01
Fully editable
No restrictions. Best for campaign content that marketing launches and retires every few weeks.
- Edit text: yes
- Change design: yes
- Move or delete: yes
Try it: change the offer, swap the button color, or delete the card.

Tier 2 · Block locks
Guardrails on a single page
Set on one block on one page. Choose what editors can move, remove, add, or restyle.
Example 02
Pinned in place
Editors can update the words and the look, but cannot move or delete it. Use it for sections every product page must carry.
- Edit text: yes
- Change design: yes
- Move or delete: no
Try it: restyle the card, then try to drag or delete it. You will see a lock instead.

Reorder only
The set of steps is fixed. Editors can reword and rearrange them, but cannot add a fourth or remove one.
- Edit text: yes
- Change design: yes
- Add or remove steps: no
Try it: drag step 03 to the front, then try to insert a new block.

Example 04
Content only
Regional teams can change the date, wording, and link. Colors, fonts, spacing, and layout stay fixed, so every invite stays on brand.
- Edit text and links: yes
- Change design: no
- Add or remove blocks: no
Try it: click into the text and type, then look for color and style settings. They are not there.

Thursday, November 12 · 11 a.m. ET · 45 minutes
Tier 3 · Synced patterns
One source of truth, everywhere
One original, reused across hundreds of pages. Update it once and every copy changes. Optionally let editors change chosen fields on each page.
Example 05
Pattern overrides
One approved product card reused across many pages. Each page can set its own headline and button. The terms and fine print stay locked and update everywhere at once.
- Edit headline and button: yes
- Edit terms: no
- Move or delete: yes
Try it: edit the headline, then try to change a bullet point.
Business Banking
Fund growth with a business line of credit
Every business line of credit includes the same approved terms:
- Credit lines from $50,000 to $5 million
- Draw funds online, 24/7
- Pay interest only on what you use
All credit products are subject to credit approval. Terms and conditions apply.
Example 06
Fully locked
A synced disclosure that cannot be moved, removed, or edited on the page. Only people allowed to edit the original can change it, and that change reaches every page instantly.
- Edit text: no
- Change design: no
- Move or delete: no
Try it: click the notice. Editing sends you to the original, if you have permission.
Important disclosures
Investment and insurance products
Not a deposit. Not insured by any government agency. Not bank guaranteed. May lose value.
