    Many apologies: my question is in the wrong place. However, I cannot find on these pages where to open a new topic. I have also searched for my topic, and do not find the question. Here it is:
    After creating a Genesis Custom Block (type text), opening on a page, and entering text in it, WP says "block rendered as empty" as soon as I click elsewhere in the page. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thanks for bringing that up.

    Did you add a PHP template for the block?

    Sorry, I did not add the PHP template. I will go back through the instructions and try to fix this issue. Thanks for your prompt help.

    Hello,
    As indicated by thestatisticien I also can't find the button to open a new topic, how do you do it?

    I have a problem with block in layout that is called "services - four column".
    This layout could be responsive but the visualization on mobile phone is not good.
    For example the first h3 on the first coloumn became like this:
    Fro
    m
    the
    ge
    nes
    is
    lab

    How can I resolve this problem?
    Thanks a lot

    To start a new thread, click the discussion are you'd like to post in, scroll down to the bottom and you will see where to start a new discussion.

    As for the question, you need to create the layout and CSS for each of your custom blocks. Here is the documentation - https://developer.wpengine.com/genesis-custom-blocks/get-started/install-genesis-custom-blocks/.
