How to Use the Timeline Block on UniLink

By UniLink Jun 26, 2026 2 min read

The Timeline Block is a UniLink block that presents your story, milestones, or journey in a chronological, visually structured format.

What is the Timeline Block?

The Timeline Block lets you narrate your professional or personal journey — from founding a company to releasing albums, earning certifications, or hitting major life milestones — directly on your UniLink page. It gives visitors context about who you are and how far you have come, which builds authentic connection and trust. Creators, entrepreneurs, brands, and professionals use it to turn a list of achievements into a compelling story.

How to Add the Timeline Block

  1. Log in to your UniLink Dashboard
  2. Open your page editor
  3. Click Add Block (+)
  4. Select Timeline

Configuration Options

  • Entry Date or Year — Label each milestone with a date, year, or custom era label (e.g., "2019", "Early Days")
  • Milestone Title — A short headline for the event or achievement
  • Description — An optional paragraph expanding on the milestone with context or impact
  • Icon or Image — Attach a small icon or thumbnail to each entry for visual variety
  • Direction — Display the timeline vertically or horizontally depending on your layout preference
  • Color Accent — Customize the connector line and dot colors to match your brand

Best Practices

  • Start from the most recent milestone and work backward — visitors are most interested in where you are now before learning where you started.
  • Keep each milestone description to two or three sentences; brevity makes the timeline easy to scan on mobile.
  • Include only genuinely significant moments — a cluttered timeline with every minor event dilutes the impact of your real achievements.
  • Use the Timeline Block on personal brand pages or "About" sections to humanize your story before presenting products or services.
