## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What should I do if the Animated Service Boxes block isn't showing up?**
A: If the Animated Service Boxes block isn't appearing, ensure that Nexter Blocks is installed and activated. This block is part of the Nexter Blocks suite, and without it, you won't have access to its features. Double-check your installation in the WordPress dashboard under 'Plugins' to confirm it's active.

**Q: What is the best way to style the buttons in my article boxes?**
A: To style the buttons in your article boxes, enable the Display Button toggle. This will allow you to select a button style from the Button Style section. Proper button styling enhances user engagement, so consider using contrasting colors and clear text to make them stand out.

**Q: How do I add more article boxes after the initial setup?**
A: To add more article boxes, simply click on the +Add Item button within the Service Boxes section. This allows you to expand your content easily. Each new item can have its own title, subtitle, description, and image, helping you showcase additional information effectively.
