A custom component is used for text and/or images. It is for creating generic content blocks where you can place whatever content you wish.
Where to Find:
This Component can be found in the "Add to Page..." section of the Toolbar.
Adding to Website:
After selecting this Component, you will be able to choose exactly where you want to add it!
You will see all available content locations it can be added - on the current page only (content locations in Gold), on every page (content locations in Red), or on every page under the current page directory (content locations in Blue. For example - if you are editing a page called "About", the blue content locations would allow you to add this component to all pages under the /about/ directory).
Configuring:
You can optionally set a Title to be displayed above the content on your page.
You can use Content Templates to insert a premade content block. The available Content Templates are:
- Text with right aligned image - A basic column of text next to an image. Useful for about us, bios, portfolio item and other pages where the image relates closely to the text.
- Text with left aligned image - A basic column of text next to an image. Useful for about us, bios, portfolio item and other pages where the image relates closely to the text.
- Two small images with text - Great for about us pages, partnership descriptions and other pages where the images are there for reference.
- Two columns with text - Your standard two column layout. The infinite possibilities include stories, histories, about us and other pages with a lot of text.
- Two columns with images on top - This is great for describing two images on a single page, or comparing two things side by side.
- Three columns with text - A three column layout. Excellent for smaller text pages and ideal for lists of items or links.
- Three columns with images on top - This is good for comparing or writing about multiple images, or for introducing multiple members of a team and other similar pages.
Using the Image Toolbar:
Built into this editor is a image hover toolbar which will help you manage the images added within it, and perform some tasks that may otherwise require coding, quickly and easily with a few clicks.
To access this, just move your mouse cursor over any image. The toolbar will then appear allowing you to edit, delete, and align it in a variety of ways.
Editing:
Need to make a change? You can access the settings for this Component again by clicking on the "Settings" button on the Component Toolbar.
Example:
An example of this Component can be viewed on the Web Tools page of http://example.viviti.com
