Similar Modules
Several modules provide related or similar functionality but take different approaches.
- Layout BG works by using a new background region in layout plugins, but requires modification of all layouts to work. Layout Builder Backgrounds does not require any modification of existing layouts, and is therefore compatible out-of-the-box with existing custom layouts, or other modules that provide Layouts (such as Bootstrap Layouts).
- Layout Builder Styles allows the selection of pre-defined styles (CSS classes and templates) for Layout Builder blocks and sections. These classes can then be used with theme-specified CSS. In contrast, Layout Builder Backgrounds does not require predefined styles and allows site builders to add and edit unique backgrounds (on-the-fly) for any layout section.
