# Create templates of blocks in the Block Editor using Patterns

With uConnect’s text editor powered by WordPress, you can now add ‘patterns’ to your pages or blogs that act as templates for you to plug content into!

A block pattern saves time by having a standard format you can always quickly add information to whenever you navigate to a new page, blog, or other content.

Here’s a video showing you how to create a Pattern yourself to use anywhere the Block Editor is accessible (which is within Community pages, Custom Pages, Blogs, Resources, and Experiences):

To create a new Pattern, follow the below steps:

1. Navigate to the block within the Block Editor that you want to templatize, turn into a Pattern
2. Click on the Block in the Document Overview section and then click on the small 3 dots on the right side of the block
3. Within the menu settings that appear for that block, click on "Pattern"
4. This will allow you to give you Pattern a name and also categorize if you foresee yourself creating many Patterns. Also not the sync setting: if you want to preserve the original Pattern, turn off this sync option; otherwise if you update this Pattern when you add it to another location, it will change the original Pattern.

To add your new Pattern, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the location where you want to add the new Pattern block you created, such as a Community Page (under "Edit Static Content" where the Block Editor is)
2. Then, using the backlash key OR the black + (plus sign) button, search for the name of your Pattern you just created.
3. Click on it and then, tada! It is now added to your page!
