Magento 2 Adding a custom block template to CMS page

Question

I'm struggling including my custom module/block template into a static CMS page.

Here's my block code:

<block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="custom_slider_block" template="Custom_Slider::slider.phtml" />

How would I implement this in a static CMS page?

Edit:

I've added a block file with the following code:

<?php
 namespace Custom\Slider\Block;
 class Slider extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template
 {
 public function _prepareLayout()
 {
 return parent::_prepareLayout();
 }
 }

and changed my block call to:

{{block class="Custom\Slider\Block\Slider" template="Custom_Slider::slider.phtml"}}

But now I get the error:

Error filtering template: Invalid block type: Custom\Slider\Block\Slider

Edit 2:

Got it working, realised I hadn't included a registration.php file to actually enable the module.

• Ansar Husain: What is your Block class ?
• Howliee: Do you mean this? namespace Custom\Slider\Block
• Ansar Husain: what is path you have for slider.phtml in your module ?
• Howliee: Custom/Slider/view/frontend/templates/slider.phtml
• Ansar Husain: code looks right according to path {{block class="Custom\Slider\Block\Slider" template="Custom_Slider::slider.phtml"}}

Answer 1

Try the code below

{{block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" template="Custom_Slider::slider.phtml"}}

• Howliee: I tried your solution Richard and got this error: Error filtering template: Invalid template file: 'Custom_Slider::slider.phtml' in module: '' block's name: 'magento\framework\view\element\template_0'
• Richard Valsalan: Just a couple of questions, 1) What is the name of your custom Module 2) Do you have a template called Slider.phtml file ?
• Howliee: The module is called Custom_Slider, Custom being the vendor. I do have a template called slider.phtml, lower case "s" which sits in Custom/Slider/view/frontend/templates/
