The “Articles” widget: show your news articles on your profile page
The Articles widget shows the news articles published for your page – newest first, each with picture, title and teaser. A tap opens the article in the news.
The widget exists only on profile pages (artists and supporters), at most once per page. The owner and the team of the page can add it. How to write an article is explained in Write news.
How to add the widget
- Open your profile page and tap Edit in the bar.
- Tap Add a widget here and choose the tile Articles in the group Content.
- Under General you can enter a Heading (English) such as “News” (optional, at most 200 characters).
- Under Visible without scrolling, set how many articles the tile shows: 1 to 12, Default: 3.
- Tap Insert, then Save in the bar.
The preview has the width of the tile on the page.
Width and layout
The preview in the dialog has the width the tile has on the page. From 560 px of inner width the articles stand in three columns, below that as rows: image left, text right. You change the tile’s width in its bar under Width (Third, Half, Full).
Visitors see the newest articles and the way to all of them.
What visitors see
- The newest published articles, up to the number you set.
- Below them All articles (…): the link opens the news, filtered to your page.
- Whoever may write for the page also sees Write an article in the head of the tile and Manage my articles below it.
Drafts and articles still under review do not appear. An article shows up in the widget as soon as it is published – you do not need to save the page again for that.
Common problems
- “Your published articles appear here.” This is how the empty tile looks in Management mode. Visitors read: “No articles have been published yet.”
- “You have not written an article for this page yet.” Tap Write an article to start the first article for your page.
- The tile is missing from the choice. The widget exists only on profile pages. If it says Already on this page, it is inserted already.
- An article is missing. It is not published yet or was withdrawn. You see its state under Manage my articles.
