To add full-width images or video, we need to first have an Additional Content - Text and rightColumn element available. Please refer to those instructions for more information. As a reminder, make sure you submit all elements to workflow to make them available to be published.

Initial Setup

The Additional Content - Text and rightColumn element now has an additional RedDot:

  • Add/Edit Full Width Content

This functions the same as adding right or left-side content.

  • Click on the RedDot.
  • Select Create and Connect Page.
  • For an image, click Callout Content Column Image.
  • For video, click Callout Content Column Video.

For Video:

  • Add the Youtube / Vimeo ID and caption as normal
  • Click the "Is this video in the right, left or full content area?" RedDot. Choose "Full". Click Ok.

For Images:

  • Images are recommended to be in a 16:9 ratio but this is not absolute. The image requires a specific width of 690 pixels, but the height of the image can be whatever is appropriate for the image content.
  • Add the image and caption as normal
  • Click the "Image Width (For Admin Use Only)" RedDot. Choose "Photo4 (full)". Click Ok.

Full-width Image to Begin a Story

If you want a story to start with an image or video, like this example - Placing Craft Above Fame, Novella Nelson '58 Dared to Take on Roles from Classical to Avant-Garde, simply create an Additional Content - Text and rightColumn element for the full-width content and then one or more additional Additional Content - Text and rightColumn elements for the text content and other media. Do not add any part of the text content to the Add / Edit Content Red Dot that is part of the default news story page as that will always be above any additional content.
