Available patterns
Patterns are reusable blocks of content that can easily be inserted into the editor. Synced patterns take WordPress patterns a step further by allowing you to update patterns across multiple pages or posts simultaneously. This is especially useful when you have a common element that appears in multiple places on your website and you want to make a global change such as a CTA block that is above the footer on all pages.
