Design
A block that spans full-width and displays a Post on Wordpress.
Use Case
Use on the News landing page to display a featured Post.
Fields
- Use the dropdown to select a post to feature.
Override Featured Image
- If set to No (default), the block will pull in the Post's featured image.
- Toggle to Yes if you want to manually select a different image to use for this block.
- Use case: If the featured image for the featured story has text, is a collage, or gets cropped weirdly/doesn't look good in this block, toggle to Yes and select the preferred image.
Hero Image
- This field only appears if the override image field is toggled to Yes.
- Use this field to upload/select the image to display in the block.
- The image should be at least 2400px x 1600px
- Note: this will not change the featured image for the Post itself
Additional Notes
Make sure you follow the additional instructions on the Hero - News block – "This block must be used immediately below a Hero block. Add class mb-0, and uncheck Display Breadcrumbs on the Hero block for proper spacing."
