# Move Content Block

### How to Move a Content Block

Moving content blocks within your Shopify theme editor allows you to customize and rearrange the content of your sections easily. Here’s a detailed guide on how to do this:

### **Key Points**

1. **Flexible Positioning of Content Blocks:**
   * Unlike Group Blocks or Layout Blocks, content blocks can be moved and interchanged freely within a section. This flexibility allows you to rearrange the content to fit your desired layout.
2. **Visual Changes:**
   * Moving content blocks will visually update the section in the theme editor, allowing you to see the changes in real-time.

### **Steps to Move a Content Block**

1. **Open Shopify Theme Editor:**
   * Log into your Shopify admin panel.
   * Navigate to **Online Store** and then click on **Themes**.
   * Click the **Customize** button for the theme you want to edit. This opens the theme editor.
