To reveal the block toolbar, you can click on the block, and the toolbar will display. Each block has its own controls that allow you to manipulate the block:

The OpenTable block offers the following options in its toolbar:

• Alignment. You can choose wide and full-width options if supported by your theme.
• Styles. You can control these here and in the Block settings in the sidebar.

Block Settings

Every block has specific options in the editor sidebar and options found in the block toolbar. If you do not see the sidebar, click the ‘cog’ icon next to the Publish button.

Styles

At the top of the options for the OpenTable block, you can choose from four different styles (click to view):

The default style is Standard. Choose any other style to change the look of the widget in the block.

Additional Settings

The additional settings allow you to add your OpenTable restaurant ID(s). Your first ID is added automatically when you add your embed code.
