Virtual Tour Blocks: Add a Floor Plan, Menu, Logo and More

Add a block

1. Open your tour in the editor and choose + Add at the top left.
2. On the Blocks tab, hover over a card and choose Add.

The block is added straight away. Most blocks get their own tab in the bar at the top of the editor, next to Tour; once there are several, the rest are under More. A tour has one of most blocks, so adding a second Welcome Screen, Password, Logo, Control Bar, Thumbnail Bar or Menu asks whether to replace the one you have.

Common questions

What are blocks in a virtual tour?

Blocks are features that apply to a whole TeliportMe tour, such as a welcome screen, a floor plan, a menu, a logo or a password. You add them from + Add in the editor, and each block has its own settings.

Does the free trial include every block?

Yes. The free trial includes every block. On a paid plan that doesn’t include a block, choosing Add explains that and offers Upgrade Now.

Can I reuse a block in another tour?

Yes. Choose Save on the block’s card under More to keep it as a global block, then add it to another tour from the Global Blocks tab in + Add.

Can a tour have two of the same block?

Not for most blocks. A tour has one Welcome Screen, Password, Logo, Control Bar, Thumbnail Bar and Menu, so adding a second one asks whether to replace the one you have.
