The Editorial Aside is a versatile paragraph type within the UK Web Platform designed to display supplementary information alongside your main text. It is ideal for providing extra context, highlighting key actions, or adding visual interest to a page without interrupting the flow of the primary content.
Key Features
When adding an Editorial Aside, you can choose from several content subtypes to enhance your storytelling:
- Call to Action (CTA): Encourage users to take a specific step (e.g., "Apply Now" or "Contact Us").
- Pullquotes: Highlight a significant quote from your text.
- Author Bios & Notes: Provide background on the content creator.
- Related Links & Media: Direct users to additional resources or statistics.
Using the Editorial Aside Interface
The UK Web Platform provides a user-friendly interface to configure your aside:
- Main Content Area: Enter your primary narrative in the "Body" field. This content will occupy the larger portion of the layout.
- Aside Selection: Use the dropdown menu under the Aside section to select the type of supplementary content you wish to add.
- Flexible Positioning: You can easily position the Editorial Aside within your page layout using drag-and-drop tools, ensuring it sits perfectly next to the relevant text.
