• main_content block: Allows you to feature individual entries from modules/content like news or articles.
• main_multi_content, main_cc_embed, main_gallery_embed, main_news blocks: Enable you to pull in and display multiple entries based on categories or other criteria.
• main_include_module block: Provides a powerful way to integrate any module screen directly into a Comcode page.

• Blocks are functional units that generate dynamic content or provide specific features. They don't inherently have a visual form and their output can vary widely.
• Boxes are a visual design element in Composr, essentially containers that visually group content on a page and often with a title at the top.

• Browse and select available blocks.
• Configure the block parameters.
• Preview the block output.
• Generate the necessary Comcode to embed the block.

Issue warnings (with an optional Private Topic sent to them) for unruly members. Optionally include one or more of several punitive actions as explained below.

Ban the member's IP address so they can no longer access the site from that device (this also adds their IP address in your htaccess file)

Ban the member so they can no longer log in (and their profile can no longer be viewed by others except high-ranking staff)

Report spammers to public blocklists such as Stop Forum Spam

Put members in a special restricted 'probation' usergroup for a specified number of days

Silence a member from the forum or topic on which they made their problematic post (this also works on comments).

Automatically delete recent or violating content / posts posted by the member

Charge points from the member's balance (also affects rank points to penalise their ability to rank up)

Automatically generate punitive action text in the Private Topic sent to the member

Members can view their account standing on their profile, including any active punitive actions and their warnings history
