Component Slots support Elements
Component Slots now support Elements — you can now use images, collection lists, sliders, rich text, and more directly in a Component Slot.

Until now, you could only put a Component inside a Slot. If you wanted to drop in a plain div, a heading, an image, or any other element, you had to wrap it in a Component first — even when that felt like unnecessary overhead.
That's no longer the case. You can now place any element directly into a Component Slot.
How it works
- Drag any element into a Slot: In the Designer, drop any element — a div, text block, image, or more — straight into a Slot on your canvas. No Component wrapper required.
- Edit it in place: Slotted elements behave like any other element on your page. Style them, nest things inside them, and work with them the same way you always do.
- Components stay clean: The Component itself doesn't change. You're just giving its Slots more flexibility in what they accept.
Why it matters
Components are most useful when they're genuinely flexible — when the structure is reusable but the content can vary. This change makes Slots behave the way they were always meant to: as open containers that accept what you actually need to put there.
