Once installed, the module must be enabled per site — go to each site's settings and activate it from the modules list.

Custom Code Block group_work
Jahia module providing a jnt:customCodeBlock component that allows editors to inject raw HTML, CSS and JavaScript directly into a page.
The three fields use the CodeMirror selector type for syntax highlighting:
| Property | Type | i18n | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
html |
String | yes | Injected directly in the page (HTML, scripts, embeds…) |
css |
String | no | Injected in <head> inside a <style> tag |
js |
String | no | Injected before </body> inside a <script> tag (no script tags needed) |
The three fields use the CodeMirror selector type for syntax highlighting.
Dependencies & Dependants
FAQ
Usage
Can I put any code in the HTML field?
Yes — including <script> tags, iframes, and third-party embeds.
Why isn’t my JS running?
The JS field is automatically wrapped in <script> tags — do not add them manually.
Does the CSS apply to the whole page or just the component?
It applies to the whole page. If needed, scope your styles with a specific class.
Can I have different HTML content per language?
Yes — the HTML field is i18n. CSS and JS are shared across languages.
Third-party integrations (HubSpot, Typeform, etc.)
How do I embed a third-party widget?
Paste the full snippet into the HTML field.
Will an external script be loaded multiple times if the component is used several times on the same page?
Yes, if included in the HTML field. Using the JS field avoids this, as scripts are deduplicated via Jahia’s addResources.
Security / Editorial
Can any editor use this component?
No — access depends on Jahia permissions. The jmix:accessControllableContent mixin allows restriction per role.
Is the content sanitized?
No — it is injected as-is. Access should be restricted to trusted users only.
Technical
Where are CSS and JS injected in the page?
CSS and JS are injected inline via template:addResources, alongside other page resources.
Is this component compatible with Jahia caching?
Yes, but injected code runs on each render and may impact behavior depending on its nature.
