Section Monklets

Overview

Monklets are predefined code snippets that allow you to bring in other module content (sermons, events, etc.) into your pages.  

You can use a monklet inside a section by placing your cursor in the content area, selecting Insert > Insert Monklet > "Desired Monklet".

Some monklets allow/require inline parameters to be passed to define items from a specific group, category, etc.  http://help.monkcms.com/article/using-monklets/ and https://help.ekklesia360.com/article/using-inline-parameters/ provides details on using these parameters.

Module Images: Unless noted otherwise in this guide most module (sermons, events, etc.) images should be 1,024px wide by 576px tall. Please note that there are areas on the site that use a square image or a non 16:9 display from the modules (eg. the section monklet for the latest sermon). In these instances the 16:9 image from the module is used and centered to cover the area. This means that if you have text layered in the image it should be as centered as possible to prevent text from getting cut off.

Note - Monklets defined with "Section Monklet" in the title can be inserted in the content area of a section used in a full width section.  Monklets defined with "Sidebar Monklet" in the title can be inserted in the content area of a section used in the sidebar.
