- Breakdance, Oxygen 6
On my [Breakdance or Oxygen] site, make a global block called [name, e.g. Newsletter strip]: a full-width strip with the heading [heading], one line [text] and a button «[button text]» to [sign-up page]. Match the site's colours and fonts. Then place it on [pages, e.g. the home page, About and the blog page], just before the footer. Make each change in a draft copy, compare each copy with the live page in a browser and send me the previews. Put each page live only after my approval.

If SAR is already in your AI app, this is enough:
Make a newsletter strip global block and place it on [pages] in [Breakdance or Oxygen], via draft copies.
What happens
- The AI app makes the global block from HTML in the site's own elements. On its own it shows nowhere.
- It reads each page's element tree to find the spot, and looks up how the Global Block element points to the block.
- It places the block on each page; because the pages are live, each change goes into a draft copy with a preview link.
- It compares every preview with its live page in a browser and tells you what looks wrong.
- Each page goes live with your approval in SAR and can be undone for 30 days. The block itself can be undone only while no page uses it.
