Slideshow Page
A slideshow page makes a visual impact using an animated slideshow with large-scale titles, descriptions, and links. It is packaged in your asset factory as a Folder with Slideshow Page and is designed to fit into the site structure in the same way as a standard Folder with a Content Page.
Suggested Use & Example
- High-impact landing page - see Research & Scholarship
Available Fields & Options
A slideshow page uses the standard page menu but no right column and offers an outro WYSIWYG for additional content below the slideshow. The slideshow offers manual navigation via clicks or swipes and can contain up to six slides. Photos in the slideshow can rotate in a set order or start on a random slide with each page load.
- Title (required), Summary, and Teaser
- Menu checkboxes to show parents and siblings
- Checkbox to randomize the starting slide
- Photos: Use the + and - to add or delete photos from the slideshow. Use the up/down arrows or drag-and-drop to reorder the photos in your slideshow. Fields for each photo include:
- Photo Source image selector
- Photo Title (required and must fill in if including links in slides)
- If no input is provided for the Photo Title and a link is provided, the Photo Description and link will be suppressed.
- Photo Description
- Photo Link (all must be linked if one is linked for user consistency, using either an internal or external link)
- Outro content WYSIWYG
- Social Media Thumbnail image
Helpful Tip
The slideshow page type can be used for a slideshow of images at the top of the page with no text. To do so, you must select not to link the slides.
Image Sizes
- Upload size = 950 x 500 pixels
- Display size = 920 x 475 pixels (larger upload size allows for the animation)
We recommend .webp or .jpg for all photos and for graphics without transparency. For graphics with transparency, we recommend .webp or .png.
Additional Specifications
- Slides display all photos at the same size and aspect ratio.
- Slideshow will size differently on large and small screens. For small screens, the navigation arrows, titles, and descriptions are displayed below the photos.
