Description

The “Research article/portrait” content type is intended for more popular science-type content. This template makes it easy for editors to create stylish magazine-like pages. The template has the same appearance as the news article template, allowing text and images to be combined freely. It will also be possible to add a fact box at the bottom of the page.

This content type can be created by both web editors and content editors.

Do as follows:

  1. To create a Research article/portrait page, switch to the “Content” tab in the top left.
  2. Click the “Research article/portrait” link.
  3. Click the “+ Add research article/portrait” button.
  4. Language
    Swedish is the default language version, although you can also choose to create an English version of your page first by selecting “English” from the drop-down list in the “Language” field.
  5. Heading
    Enter the news article heading in the “Heading” field (required).
  6. Introduction
    Write an introduction, a shorter summary of the news article, in the “Introduction” field (required). Feel free to copy the introduction from the body text of the news article.
  7. Body text
    Add the complete body copy to the “Body text” field. You can also add subheadings, links, lists, images, video clips and tables. Feel free to format the text to make the page easier to read.
  8. Category
    Under “Category”, choose one or more categories applicable to your news article (required).
  9. Header image/video
    The “Header image/video” tab allows you to add a header image or a header video at the top of the page.    Video cover
    Add an image to be used as a cover image for the video before it’s played in the “Video cover” field (required). Click the grey “Open image library” button. See the instructions under 8a.
    1. Header image
      Click the grey “Open image library” button.

      2. Select image
        To select a previously uploaded image, click the image (green checkmark) and then the blue “Select image” button in the lower left.
      3. Alt text and Image text
        Once you’ve chosen an image, you need to complete the “Alt text” field (required) and the image text for the image in the “Image text” field. Images which are purely decorative or carry no information are not, however, to have an alt text, so enter <none> in the text field.
    2. Header video
      Click the grey “Add Video” button. If you’ve added both a header image and a header video, the video will be shown.

        Click the grey “Create video” button to save the settings or “Cancel” to return to the main tabs.
  10. Promo settings
    The “Promo settings” tab enables you to upload an alternative image for the promo, which is shown instead of the header image. If you have a header video on the page and you upload an image here, this image will be used in the promo (otherwise the promo will use a background colour).

    3. Promo introduction
      When a news article is used in a promo, the normal introduction is used. This is often long, so it’s cut short by the system and followed by an ellipsis (…). Here you can enter a shorter  introduction in the “Promo introduction” field that will be used in the promo.
  11. Fact box
    The “Fact box” field allows you to add facts which aren’t part of the news article and these are then shown under the article.
