IAS Drupal 7 Sites Documentation
Using Sections
Some sites employ the Paragraphs module to add flexibility by allowing content authors to customize pages through the use of different collections of fields that we call sections.
You may see sections referred to as “paragraphs” on some editing screens and as “sections” on others.
On equipped content types, content authors have the ability to select the types of sections added to the page. Sections can be re-ordered to customize the page.
Accordion Section
Callout Full Width Section
This section will not display properly on pages with blocks in sidebars.
Callout Grid Section
For the Callout Grid there is an additional style button for “Solid” or “More.” “Solid” is the blue button with the bar on the right on hover. “More” is the yellow button with the arrow on hover.
Callout Ideas Section
This feature is exclusive to www.ias.edu.
Callout List Content Section
Begin typing in the Page Reference field to search for pages. A list of results will appear, and you can select one of these results to create a link to that page. The number that appears next to the page title is that page’s unique node ID.
Referenced content must have teaser text for any text to appear in the list. Where to add this text varies depending on content type:
- Basic Page (www.ias.edu), Landing, Webform: Currently there is no support for teaser text.
- Basic Page (not www.ias.edu), Idea: Teaser text is pulled from the body
field. If you want to specify the teaser text, you can edit the field’s summary.
- In the Media, News: Teaser text is pulled from the body field. There is no option to specify the teaser text.
- Stacked Page: Add teaser text in the Teaser Text field.
