Article (Layout Builder)

The Article content type allows content editors to create various news-related content such as news items, blog posts, and press releases using a single content type. Editors can customize the layout and display of these articles based on their type, enabling them to show news items on a dedicated news page and blog posts on a blog page.

The Article content type also allows content editors to incorporate Layout Builder components directly within the page, providing enhanced control over content presentation.

Creating an Article

1. Go to Admin > Content > Add Content > Article (Layout Builder).

2. Fill in the content fields:

   • Title (required): The title of the article.
   • Subtitle: An optional subtitle to provide additional context.
   • Type: Select “Blog”, “News”, or “Press Release”. Each type uses the same fields but enables administrators to group articles for display on different pages (e.g., Blog types on a Blog page, Press Releases on a Press Release page).
   • Header image: This image displays on the Article page and in listing views.
   • Tags: References terms from the Tags vocabulary. See Taxonomy for more information. Tags provide a way to categorize and organize content.
   • Body (required): Add the main text of the article using the WYSIWYG editor. The WYSIWYG editor allows for rich text formatting.
   • Locations: If the Article relates to a specific Branch, select it here. This will display the Article in listings on the Branch page.
   • Published Date (required): Defaults to today’s date. This date displays on the Article page and is used for sorting and in listings.
