You will need this information when you have added a Carousel tile, and wish to populate it for the first time, or edit it.

What is the Carousel tile?

The carousel tile is for promoting the content across your website. It will allow you to display to a user, multiple items of content, with its image, title and description to help sign post them to the areas of the site you would like them to look at. There are multiple display options for the carousel tile, to present your content in different ways.

Adding items to the Carousel tile: 

  1. In the 'Compose' view, you will see that your carousel tile is empty (unless you are coming back to edit it!). To populate the carousel tile, you can simply drag items of content from the content chooser on the left over the tile, and when you drop them, they will be added to the carousel. 
  2. You can either find items of content in the 'Recent items' list, or you can search for them by name. Please note, an item of content will only register in the carousel if it has an image associated with it. You can add as many items to the carousel as you wish, however we would recommend a maximum of five slides. When you add an item of content to the carousel tile, it will display the following information:
    1. The title of the item of content
    2. The description of the item of content, if there is one
    3. The main image
    4. It will also display a 'Read more' arrow on each slide, and this will be a link to the item of content that you are promoting on the carousel.

  1. If you wish to remove the Carousel tile, navigate to the 'Layout' view of the cover page, and click 'x' in the top left of the tile. When deleting a tile, the tile you are selecting has a red border.
