Hi,

We think it should be a good idea to create an area in the backend where you can make up paragraphs, forms or other blocks that you can use on several pages.
We can do a lot with duplicatiing a paragraph, but if there is a content change you need to change all those paragraphs on all those pages.
The risk of this is that you forget one and the content on your site is not consistent anymore.
We would prefer to change the content on one place, which takes care the content will be changed correctly on the whole site.

This might be good for paragraphs with for example newsletter forms, testimonials, partnerlogo's, CTA blocks, etc.

Please let me know if you think it is a good idea.

Best regards
Gerard

It is. And w have it - it is called global paragraphs.

Just create a page  called i.e. "Global content" and maybe place it in a folder - make sure it is not published.

Add paragraphs to that page and on other pages where you want to use the, use the "Global element" feature from the paragraph list. See docs: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/content/content/paragraphs#3261
