A group heading with content
When to use
You should always place a Group Heading above a group of one or more of the following "stackable" content types. A Group Heading does not need to have text, so even if you don’t have an H2 heading to add, you should add a Group Heading above one or more of these.
When not to use it
Most content types include their own "Heading" field. If a block includes this field and it isn't one of the "stackable" content types, you don't need to precede it with a Group Heading.
Best practices
Do
- Place a Group Heading above one or more stackable content types, even if you don't include text in the "Group Heading" field.
- Be brief and clear.
- Use sentence case.
Don't
- Don't include a period at the end of the heading.
Accessibility
Headings
When you use a Group Heading with text, it will appear as a Heading 2 element on the page. The headings within the group of stackable content types below it should start at Heading 3.
When you use a Group Heading without text, all headings within the group of stackable content types below it should start at Heading 2.
