The UAB homepage module is designed with set elements to assist you in building a homepage layout more quickly.

It is not required to use this homepage design, but it is an option if the content blocks fall in line with your site needs. It's not possible to change the order of the homepage blocks or add other elements. Not all elements must be used, you have the option to show/hide the ones you want to use. See the details of the elements below and the available content fields. A full page example is also available.

How to use

This is a custom module and is not installed on sites by default. If it is not already installed on your site, you can request it.

It is recommended that you use either the links that are part of the banner, link boxes or content blocks, but not all three at the same time. Choose the one that best fits the amount of content and media resources you have. If you have neither supporting content nor images, the banner with links is a good option. If you have some supporting copy, but no images, link blocks are a good choice. If you have supporting content plus images, the content blocks are the best choice.
