Create a news article

News articles are created using the News detail page template and are used to publish updates, announcements, project milestones, awards, media releases, and other corporate news content. 

Setting up the page

The News detail page can only be created under the parent News / <Year> page. 

To create a news page:

  1. In Pages, hover over the parent News / <Year> folder and click on the 3 dots to display a menu with options. Select Create a subpage.

  2. In the Select a page template window, click on the News detail page template and click Select.

  3. Enter a name for the new page, using alphanumeric characters only. Spaces in page names will be replaced with a dash, and uppercase letters will change to lowercase. e.g. If you type News detail page as the page name, after you press enter, the format will change to news-detail-page.

  4. The new page will load, and if you wish to change the page URL to be different to the page display name, click the 3 dots next to the page, select Settings, and edit under Item name.

  5. Enter page properties and metadata in Page content and assign the relevant content. Please refer to our guide for steps on how to do this.

Creating a news article

  1. After creating the page or once the page loads, begin building the page using the required components. Commonly used components include Image card list, Title, and Page content, and these may differ across operating companies.

  2. Drag the components from the Components panel onto the page or click the + icon within the container and select the required component.
  3. Populate the page with the approved article content. Ensure the article contains:
    1. Article headline and body
    2. Supporting imagery (if applicable)
    3. Supporting documents (if applicable)
    4. Video content (if applicable)

  4. Go to the right-hand panel for the Advanced styling dropdown, and align all components in the page following below:

    1. Image card list: Top small, bottom none
    2. Tags: Top small, bottom small
    3. Title: Top small, bottom small
    4. Page content: Top and bottom small
    5. Featured news: Top small, bottom blank

    Make sure to tick Is Contained? for all components, as it helps maintain clean component isolation in the page.

  5. To add images:

    1. Upload the image to the media library if it has not already been uploaded.
    2. Add the Image card list component or select an image field within an existing component.
    3. Select the image from the media library.
    4. Save your changes.

    Recommended image sizes should follow the image specifications. 

    Thumbnail: 800x590 pixels
    Hero/Banner Image: 2400x1350 pixels

  6. To add downloadable documents:
    1. Upload the document to the media library.
    2. Add a hyperlink to the page.
    3. Link the text to the uploaded document.
  7. Complete the page information and settings. Refer to Page properties, metadata, and tags for detailed guidance.
