How it works
The editor already comes with a library of pre-defined rows that are combinations of modules and columns assembled and styled in advance, optimised for desktop, tablet, and mobile. Favourite Rows builds on this by letting you add your own rows.
When you save a row as a favourite, its full configuration is preserved: text content, modules, images, design settings, and whether it uses global or local styling. When you insert it into another site, it behaves exactly as it did when you saved it. If there is global styling on the row, it will adapt to the Global Design of the site you are adding it to.
Saving a row as a favourite
To save a row, select the row in the editor and click the star icon “Favourite”. You'll be prompted to give it a name and assign a row category, which makes it easier to find later when adding rows and in the Favourite Row library.
Adding a Favourite Row
To add a row to a site, click “Add row” on the page you want to edit to open the Add row modal. Here you will see your favourite rows, marked with a star, together with the collection of rows provided by Mono. Clicking the row will add it to the page.
The Favourite Row Library is where you manage the saved rows. From here you can:
Browse and search your saved rows by name or category
Edit the content and design of a row
Rename or change row category
Delete rows you no longer need
Changes made to a master row in the library apply only to the stored template, they do not affect rows that have already been inserted into existing sites.
Who has access?
Sharing rows with your team
Favourite Rows are automatically shared and visible to all users in your organisation with access to the Favourite Rows.
By default, all Admin users can add Favourite Rows and access the Favourite Row Library. End users (simple_editing_mode) can add rows from the Add row modal, but cannot save rows as favourite or access the Favourite Row library. Access for Favourite rows can be customised through RAI user limitations.
Global vs. local design
Favourite Rows follows Mono's logic for global and local design:
Global design: If a row uses global design settings, it will automatically adapt to whichever site it's added to, picking up that site's design system (fonts, colours, spacing). This is ideal for flexible layouts, like Mono’s Frameworks.
Local design: If a row's design is set locally, it will look exactly the same wherever it's placed, regardless of the site's design system. Use this when you want to reuse a row’s exact design.
Tip: For the best results with globally designed rows, make sure the site has a Global Design system set up before inserting them. Starting from one of Mono's Frameworks is a great way to do this, as they come with a design system you can easily customise.
