Adding a Block to the Page

Apply any blocks available with the JetProductGallery; they all support video format. For instance, we adjust the Gallery Slider block on the usual Gutenberg page. 

Select “WooCommerce Products” as the Source and point out the Product ID. We need to specify the ID as we edit the usual page.
