Put a link in the Blocks menu (or at least on the Blocks page) that directs people to Layouts where they can add blocks. This may be redundant but for the average user used to Drupal it is very confusing at first.

Great idea. Just a note at the top of the page would be adequate. Like: Custom blocks may be reused throughout your site on different pages. To place a custom block, configure a layout from the Layouts configuration page. (with a link on the last 3 words). Let's make a separate issue.

Here it is :wink:
