Details about all the section in Workspace landing page. and editing options

What are Workspace Landing Page Sections?
Workspace Landing Page Sections are the customizable content blocks — Welcome, Your Communities, Communities, Communities You Can Join, Explore Campaigns, and Edit Background — that make up the Workspace landing page template.

The Workspace landing page uses a single template in which a Workspace Administrator can customize text, descriptions, and images; hide sections; and rearrange the layout to suit the Workspace's needs. Each section can be customized independently once Edit Mode is active.
