Updating to the 2023 Template
If you have a site using the older version of the Branded Template, you can upgrade your site. Depending upon which features you used of the old template, there may be some work involved. The easiest way to do this is with FTP access to your site, and FTP access to the live Branded Template. But if you don’t have FTP access to the template, a downloaded copy of a backup will work fine too.
Example of a Downloadable Word Document Resource
This is the new format for downloadable resources. All they are as posts that you have marked with the category “Resources”. Each resource download page is now manually created with a graphical editor, just like any other post. But you can use existing resource pages as templates, simply duplicate them and begin editing.
Make sure you take care to set up your preview image appropriately.
The block that shows the title of the document and the download button is a media block. It takes care of all the hard work for you, just select the media file using the block controls. On the front-end, the Download text turns into a Download button in the stye of the theme.

This article page was made as blocks to create the columns and then blocks to create the paragraphs and insert the images. The nice thing about the columns block is that it automatically takes care of responsiveness.
