This merges these two blocks into a single one named `beforeContent`, which appears within the `<div class="nhsuk-width-container">` container but before the `<main>` tag. This should be used for components like the breadcrumb or back link, or any other component which should be within the same width as the rest of the page, but be skipped by the "skip to main content" link, not included when printing the page, and generally not considered part of the main content of the page.
This is no longer be needed as the back link contains its own default margins.

Do you mean the changelog for nhsuk-frontend? I’ve not mentioned it there, as the frontend package doesn’t actually contain the template at all (unlike the govuk one). We should definitely describe the changes in the What’s new page in the service manual though. Will do that in a separate PR! |

@frankieroberto Thanks for this, I'd done some of this already on this branch: main...review/1-release-7-0-0, so I've merged this work into work that branch. I've also updated the whats new and changelog on that branch. |

@anandamaryon1 ah thanks! shall I close this PR now in favour of #2035? |
|
@frankieroberto I'll come back and tidy once the release is out |

Released as part of v7.0.0: #2040 |
Description
This updates the way that the page template is set up.
Previously there were 2 blocks defined:
outerContentandbeforeContent, with the former recommended for back links and the latter for breadcrumbs.This merges the two blocks together as one named
beforeContentwhich is placed within the<div class="nhsuk-width-container">but before the<main>element.This is recommended for both breadcrumbs and back links - and any other components which should appear within the width of the page, but before the main element.
These components are:
In addition, the margins on the back links are no longer specified, as the back link now has margin above it by default.
This change aligns the page template block naming conventions with the GOV.UK Design System page template.
Note: in both, the
mainblock is confusingly named as that block appears outside of both the<main>tag and thebeforeContentblock, rather than being within the<main>tag.Related issue
