Announcement block

How and when to use the Announcement block

The Announcement block is a splashy, eye-catching block, used to call out various types of content.

The Announcements block has the ability to add one or more items in a stack. Each item has an eyebrow, headline / description and button (all can be hidden on the sidebar).

The block has a small banner at the top of the whole section that can have it's text changed or be turned off entirely.

Suggestions for use:

  • It's best used on the home page, but can be placed anywhere on your site.

  • It's best used with images though the option exists to use it without images.

  • Featured events (not part of our standard Events Posts feature, you would set this up manually here).

  • Feature issues (not part of our standard Issues Posts feature, you would set this up manually here).

  • Feature news (not part of our standard Issues Posts feature, you would set this up manually here).

  • Short bio intro blurb, best used with the "background image" layout option.

The Announcements block has three major layout options:

  • One image per item

  • No images per item, background image

  • No images per item, no background image
