Cannot see any blocks in Magento2












1















Magento version - Community Edition 2.1.1



Machine - AWS EC2



OS - Ubuntu - 14.04



Php - 5.6



MySql - 5.6



Theme - Default Luma



I have installed magento 2 without sample data.
Everything is working smoothly but I could not see any blocks under this tab.



Admin Login -> Content -> Blocks



It shows ' We could not found any records'



Is this the expected behaviour ? How can I add default blocks?



I have already explored this https://community.magento.com/t5/Theming-Layout-Design-Questions/No-default-Content-Elements-Blocks-listed-in-admin-backend-e-g/m-p/41872#M598 , but this is not exactly I am looking for.



Even my database cms-block table is empty.



I am new to magento2 and really stuck here.
Any help is really appreciated.

Yes this is expected behaviour.



Your blocks may depend on your theme.



For example if you purchase theme you may see more blocks.



Go ahead and create a block. This block can be imported using widgets in your pages(Home page for example) or even block inside another block.
