Header Image and Intro Text

The header image amd intro text for your Next Steps layout will be loaded into your Outreach page: Content > Pages > Outreach. The following fields are used for your Outreach page:

  • Content: Used for the title and content of the Intro text
  • Header Image: The recommended header image size for your design theme is 1600x480px

The content for the Featured Ministry portion of the layout pulls from a separate section: Content > Sections > Outreach - Featured Ministry. The following fields are used within this section:

  • Background Image: Controls the image displaying behind your content

List of Ministries and Partnerships

The Outreach opportunities are powered by the Articles module: Content > Articles.

Each list is setup as a Series in the Articles module (International, Local and Southeast), which represent the three tabs on your page. When creating your Articles, the specific Series will need to be assigned under the Detail tab, which determines the list where you article will display.

The filter bar is controlled by the Outreach Location and Outreach Skills parent categories in the Articles module (Content > Articles > Categories tab). You can add items to each category by selecting the "Add a New Category" button. Make sure either the Outreach Location or Outreach Skills is specified as the "Parent" category, since this will add your new category to the respective filter dropdown.

Make sure you do not change the Series titles or Parent categories.
