Has there been any more update on this? The ability to use custom modules within the blog post copy is so necessary.

I totally agree with you. I think the CMS is really mature and especially Kevin’s CLEAN THEME is great. I am a little disappointed with the blog. You have virtually no design options. I hope that there will be an update soon.

Best,

I had a little chat with the Hubspot CEO about this. Here is his response:

So at least they are aware and working on it. Now, how long that will take, I don’t know.

Hello Community.

Thank you for your feedback and incredible patience here. A bit of an update here, we are currently in a small private BETA. The team is happy to announce that we will be ready for a public BETA soon for drag-and-drop functionality in the blog post editor. If you are interested in trying this out today or have any questions, feel free to send me a message.

We also want to make it clear that this beta does not currently allow reordering modules, resizing modules, or adding modules outside the rich-text area. Thanks for your patience as we work to make this feature awesome. We are looking forward to giving you all access soon.

Thanks,

Yaisah

@yaisah thanks for sharing this exciting update. I would definitely be interested in trying it out immediately, even if it is only “half-baked” yet. If we can easily go back to the production version, please sign me up. Thanks!

The two arrows on the top left page. If they are not there maybe Hubspot needs to give you access first. I think I remember that I had to ask them in the first place. Best, Dani

Hi

Is this feature live? I have a custom css file and template for a blog and it’s so out dated - could someone help us convert the blog back to drag and drop plus the ability to insert background images in the header etc.

This shouldn’t be so complicated…

Thank you

Marie-Anne

In some client portals it is live, without any warning.

In my dev-account some portals have the feature, some don’t. It’s just random.

The problem for me: most of my dev-portals don’t have it and now some of our clients want custom modules for this. Don’t now how I should develop these without having the feaure myself enabled. 🙈

Hi @phlp, You have to ask Hubspot to unlock these portals. Then you have a clear path. Regards, Dani

Is there a knowledge base article on how to implement this @yaisah . We are trying to add dnd\_area to our blog single template and receiving errors for _ **Error:The template cannot contain “dnd\_area” modules.** _ Thanks
