In this video, we walk you through how our “Extra Settings for Section” module works — a powerful enhancement that expands the default customization options available in HubSpot CMS sections.
HubSpot’s native section settings are helpful but often limited when you need more advanced design control. To overcome these limitations, we created this module, which you can drag and drop into any section (or even inside a column) to unlock a wide range of new styling capabilities.
Here are some of the key improvements:
Advanced background combinations: layer images, colors, gradients, and even videos simultaneously.
Different backgrounds for desktop and mobile: choose one image or video for desktop and another for mobile.
Custom overlays: add color or gradient overlays with full control over colors, direction, and intensity.
Background blur: apply blur effects to create more modern or dramatic layouts.
Top and bottom dividers: add decorative shapes, arrows, or gradient dividers.
Full-height mode & “box-set” style: turn your section into a full-height hero or a card-like container with full drag-and-drop freedom.
Parallax effect: fix the background image so it behaves as a page-level parallax element.
Column-level support: apply these same enhancements to individual columns, not only full sections.
This module is designed to give you far more creative flexibility while maintaining the simplicity of HubSpot’s drag-and-drop editor.
