Build Hero Image

Instructions

From the T4 Site Structure, navigate to the page you are updating. 

How to add a new hero image

1. Click the Add Content button.
2. Select Hero Image/Video from the list of content types.
3. Add a descriptive name for the content type to be used within T4.
4. To ensure the hero image is mobile responsive, you need to connect the image you uploaded to the T4 Media Library in all three places it says select image. You do not need to re-size or upload 3 different images to the media library. Start with the "Select image (Desktop)" field:
   • Click Select Media.
   • Navigate to the program folder that is housing your photo in the T4 Media Library. 
   • Click on the photo you'd like to use for the hero. 
5. Repeat this process using the same photo for the "Select image (Tablet)" section and the "Select image (Mobile)" section. 
6. Once you've added all three different photo sizes, click the Save Changes button to save content as a draft, or press the arrow and select Save and Approve to save and publish updates.
7. Ensure that the Hero is the top content type so that it appears at the very top of the page. 

Note: Prior to adding this content type, you should upload the image to the T4 Media Library. The hero image content type uses the PXL Tool so you do not need to resize the image prior to uploading it to your media library.

Edit existing hero image content type

1. Select the existing Hero Image content type you'd like to edit. 
2. Select newly added images and make needed adjustments to the content elements described above. 
3. Click Save Changes to save content as a draft, or press the arrow and select Save and Approve to save and publish updates.
