Master Common HubSpot Page Modules
Building flexible, reusable website content in Hubspot relies on understanding how common page modules work inside the drag-and-drop editor. This guide walks you through each standard module and how to use it effectively when designing website pages, landing pages, and blog templates.
All of these modules are available in the page editor sidebar and can be combined, duplicated, and customized to match your content and layout needs while keeping your theme consistent.
How Common HubSpot Modules Work
Common modules are prebuilt content blocks you can drag into your layouts. They respect your theme settings, so your fonts, colors, and spacing remain consistent across all pages.
When you add a module, you can:
- Edit its content directly in the sidebar or inline on the page
- Reorder it via drag-and-drop within a section or column
- Clone it to reuse structure and styling
- Adjust visibility for different devices where supported
These modules appear under the Add tab of the page editor, and many templates in HubSpot themes are already built from them.
Rich Text Module in HubSpot Pages
The rich text module is the most commonly used content block for standard pages. It lets you combine text, images, and simple formatting in a single flexible area.
Main Uses of the HubSpot Rich Text Module
- Headings and paragraphs
- Inline images and basic image alignment
- Links, lists, and quotes
- Simple formatting with bold, italic, and underline
You can edit rich text content either in the sidebar editor or by clicking directly on the content in the page preview. Styling (font, color, and size) follows your active theme settings.
Image and HubSpot Media Modules
Use image-based modules when you need focused control of visuals beyond what rich text can offer.
Image Module in HubSpot
The image module adds a single image pulled from your file manager or uploaded directly.
Key options include:
- Selecting or replacing the image file
- Adding alt text for accessibility and SEO
- Linking the image to a page or external URL
- Setting basic size and alignment options
Image Gallery Module
The image gallery module displays multiple images in a single section with gallery-style navigation or a grid, depending on your theme.
You can usually:
- Add or remove images from the gallery
- Reorder images
- Edit captions where supported by the design
Buttons and Calls-to-Action in HubSpot
Buttons are essential for driving user actions on your pages. Common modules include simple buttons and call-to-action elements that align with overall HubSpot theme styles.
Button Module
The button module creates a single clickable button you can configure in the editor.
Options typically include:
- Button text
- Destination URL or page
- Open in new tab or same tab
- Alignment within its column
Some themes also offer style variants for primary and secondary buttons managed from theme settings.
Form Module in HubSpot
The form module lets you embed a HubSpot form to capture leads, subscribers, or contact requests.
From the module settings, you can:
- Select an existing form or create a new one
- Choose which follow-up options the form uses
- Customize form title and introduction text in a separate rich text area
Because the form itself is managed in your form tools, you can update fields and options globally while the module controls placement on the page.
Video and Media Embeds in HubSpot
To add video content, use the dedicated video module or embed options within supported modules.
Video Module
The video module allows you to embed hosted video from supported services or from your file manager, depending on theme and portal settings.
Typical configuration options include:
- Video source and file selection
- Player controls and autoplay preferences where available
- Thumbnail or poster image selection in some designs
Embedding video using the dedicated module ensures responsive behavior across screen sizes and consistent styling.
Layouts and HubSpot Structural Modules
Beyond basic content, common structural modules help you organize layout without needing custom code.
Section and Column Controls
In drag-and-drop templates, you work with sections and columns that contain your modules. You can:
- Add new sections with predefined column structures
- Adjust column widths
- Move modules between columns
These tools are not traditional content modules but are essential for arranging common modules across your page.
Divider and Spacer Modules
Divider and spacer modules add visual breathing room and separation between content blocks.
- Divider: adds a horizontal rule styled by your theme.
- Spacer: adds empty vertical space with adjustable height in some themes.
Use these sparingly to maintain clean, readable layouts.
Blog and Listing Modules in HubSpot
Certain common modules are designed specifically for blogs and dynamic content areas, usually inside blog templates or listing pages.
Blog Content Module
The blog content module pulls in post data such as title, body, author, and publish date. It is most often part of blog templates rather than standard landing pages.
While you do not usually edit this module per page, you can configure template settings to control which fields display and how they are styled.
Post Listing Modules
Listing modules show multiple posts or items from a blog or dynamic data source. You can often:
- Choose which blog or data set to display
- Set the number of items per page
- Control basic sorting order
These modules allow you to surface recent articles or resources across different sections of your site.
Advanced HubSpot Module Tips
To get more from common modules, combine them with theme controls and reusable content tools.
Using Global Content and HubSpot Modules
Some modules or module groups can be set as global content, meaning edits update everywhere that global group is used.
Effective uses include:
- Global headers and navigation
- Footers and legal text
- Standard promotional banners or alerts
Convert a section to global when you need consistent structure across multiple pages.
Cloning and Reusing Sections
Within the editor, you can clone individual modules, columns, or entire sections. This is an efficient way to repeat a layout pattern while adjusting only the specific content.
- Select the module or section.
- Click the clone or duplicate option.
- Drag the cloned element to the new position if needed.
- Edit text, images, or links while preserving design.
