Global Settings for Block Module

Created on 8 June 2009, almost 16 years ago
Updated 29 May 2025, 2 days ago

It's happened to me a number of times that I would configure a new block on my main site theme, only to find the block missing on a page using a subtheme. Under Theme Configuration, we have setting for each theme, but we also have global settings.

Could we not have Global Block settings to configure where block should appear by default & then have custom settings for each theme if needed?

    Thank you for sharing your idea for improving Drupal.

    We are working to decide if this proposal meets the Criteria for evaluating proposed changes. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or there is no community support. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

    Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

    Thanks!
