I use Magento 2.2.4 and I want to add a static block with the name "support" in the right side of the top menu, but what I try not working.

I try to add this in the phtml file

<?php echo $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Magento\Cms\Block\Block')->setBlockId('support')->toHtml();?>

I try to add this in the Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml

<referenceContainer name="page.top">
   <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="support">
       <arguments>
            <argument name="support" xsi:type="string">support</argument>
       </arguments>
   </block>
</referenceContainer>

I do something wrong?

Thank you

  • The code looks fine. Have you flushed cache?

  • Is this a new theme? You might have to check your database theme table. If your theme is set to 'virtual theme' all xml changes won't work, despite wether the code is fine or not

Reset to default

Try the below code in your Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml file:

<referenceContainer name="page.top">
   <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="support">
       <arguments>
            <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">support</argument>
       </arguments>
   </block>
</referenceContainer>

Instead of

<referenceContainer name="page.top">
   <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="support">
       <arguments>
            <argument name="support" xsi:type="string">support</argument>
       </arguments>
   </block>
</referenceContainer>
